Card in a Box.

Hello to Everyone.  Thank you all so much for the lovely comments left om my last post.  I was thrilled to bits that so many of you liked it.   I am still having time out ,so to speak, but I had a little play yesterday and finished my Pop up Card in a Box yesterday.  I had actually made the box 2 weeks ago, but never finished the decoration.   So easy to make and enjoyable too.
 Here is the link that I used.  But my fellow blogging friend Edna has done some beautiful creations over on her blog Here.   Just let your creative juices flow and add your own theme to each one. This one is floral and I used craft card for my box and used Teresa Collins papers to give it some colour.  There is a heart die behind the flowers and I used some leafy dies to give it height,  It will fit in a envelope, but I am doing a little box for this one.  Hope you will try this as its so much fun to do.   Take Care.  Hugs Rita xxxx

Love this idea! Your kraft paper made this really look like 'a box', but so prettily decorated. Your blue flourish over the peeking heart really draws the eye into all the goodies filling this box. Those flowers are gorgeous & such a nice complementary color to the blue flourish. Well done, Rita. But then you always do! TFS & Hugs
