I love sharing my papercrafting with other people, I always make sweetie parcels and little gifts for my work colleagues at Christmas and special events, but until recently that’s where my sharing stopped! Shock I know, that was until I came across The Kindness Projects – and from now on people I come across will be getting little token gifts from me – a cashier in the supermarket, the doctor’s receptionist, the lovely chap that delivers my Stampin’ Up! goodies!
So, what are my token gifts – well, I thought I would go with some sweeties start with, and I have a pile left over from the sweetie bar at the Wedding, so I’ll be working my way through these first.
The first sweeties that I pulled out of the stack were my favourites – Parma Violets! (just remind me of my childhood! LOVE them!) and so this box was created!
Aren’t they Cute! I adore this Designer Series Paper, Sweet Li’l Thing, it’s designed with Children in mind, but I just cannot resist those Strawberries! I made a card with this same paper last week. The prints are adorable, and I love the colour combination too – Hello Honey, Pool Party, Tangelo Twist, Tip Top Taupe, Very Vanilla and Watermelon Wonder – I don’t think I would have come up with that colour combination on my own, but I have to say it will be one that is staying in my Colour Combo Bank from now on!
And they are so quick and easy to make with only a teeny tiny bit of Designer Series Paper too! Awesome!
These boxes have been finished with a ‘Thank You’ from Something to Say, punched with my favourite punch (this week!) the Washi Label Punch, and some flowers from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch pack (and a few Candy Dots!)
