I am back from my 2 week holiday and couldn't wait to create! I missed all my crafty things, blogging and blogger peeps! Here's a little something I whipped up to get me back into my craft room!
I know Valentines has passed and the chocolates have been snarfed. However, the Art with Heart Challenge is all month long. The Eileen Hull Inspiration Team is sharing their awesome projects with you each week!
This month the Cookie Box die is looking for a new home. So I decided to use my Cookie Box die and show you how I used it.
Did you know you can stack this die! I cut the mat board 2 times so I could stack. This die comes with a hinge so you can create this mega Cookie Box.
You can see here I stacked one on top of the other.
I had to decide the topper...Festive Gent or... Layered Butterfly! Decisions...
Ohhh distress glitter how I love thee... In Festive Berries, Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry. The Festive Gent is in Black Soot distress glitter.
I attached the smaller mini rosette to the front.
Hey...who ate the Caramel Kisses!
I inked and decorated the inside of the cookie box die.
I filled the Cookie Box die with Kisses!
I added some tattered pinecone roses to the inside lid. Then attached some twine to help with the weight.
I love all the layers, glitter and mini rosettes!
Thanks for stopping by! I so appreciated all the lovely comments on my posts while I was away. Welcome to the new stalkers!
