Yes, this card is a bit busy, I got carried away with the darling pinecones, and the gorgeous copper foil paper, and those lovely pine needles....so many ideas flying around my little brain.
Just like a comfy old jumper/sweater.
So much fun.

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS
JOLLY OLD SANTA.
SANTA'S LITTLE HELPER. He stands out in a crowd.
PEEK-A-BOO who is hiding in there. Cute Double Z Fold card.
Who doesn't like a gingerbread house? Yum...
Thank You, Totally Trees.
What a useful stamp set Totally Trees is becoming.
Colours and styles, even embossing different elements makes this set fun to use.
It's getting to the end of the school year where we need lots of thank you cards for teachers, sports coaches etc. Dash a few out now and be ahead of the game.
I love the simplicity of Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe.

Fold Flat Box Cards.....so much fun.
FOLD FLAT BOX CARD Directions.
Card base - 2 x ( 5 7/8" x 4 1/8") cardstock. Score with the long side up @ 1/2" - 1"; turn 180% and repeat score lines. Repeat scores on 2nd piece. Round all corners. Before burnishing score lines on Oval front card - **adhere DSP 1 x (3 5/8" W x 3 7/8" H) to card front section between the score lines. Place desired size framelit Oval and run through Big Shot. ** Card Back/ inside - adhere DSP 1 x (3 6/8" W x 4" H) to inside card between the score lines. Turn over back section and stamp a greeting. (as you would inside a normal card.) Decorate the inside scene as you wish, with fox and trees, or heat embossed greeting as above. Burnish score lines in 'Hills and Valleys' folds on both the card front and back. Run Fuse along the 1/2" flaps on left and right side of the card back. Join front to back, lining up outer edges and rounded corners. Decorate front as desired.
Square cut out front card same dimensions as above. DSP - same dimensions as above. Continue ** DO NOT adhere DSP just yet. Lay DSP on card front; place graduating square framelits until you are happy with the look. 1 larger & 1 smaller. Place small amount of Snail to reverse of DSP in the centre, and layer on cardstock; place smallest square framelit in desired place and run through Bigshot. Remove smallest cut out section. Lift off front DSP piece and place largest square over small hole in DSP, line up and run through Bigshot, DSP only. Replace onto cardstock and frame will be created. Adhere DSP to card front. ** Continue as above.
Both cards will lay flat for C6 envelopes.
Card back can be completely in Whisper White, making stamping and writing a message easier, or not, your choice. Happy Stampin' Louisa
Woo Hoo PARTY Time....
More fun box cards, again using the Fox and Friends DSP Stack with
Calypso Coral Cardstock. The cute banner is in the paper stack....fun & quick.
To keep the theme going these box cards lie flat to go in a regular C6 envelopes.
Go the extra mile and stamp images to match the card on the front of each envelope.
Love Kraft cardstock. This box card is framed using the Pop of Pink gold embossed Designer Paper, so I've carried the theme through by heat embossing the inside background and added spots and a heart (Work of Art) with the very cute Layer Love Stamp Set.
Dear Little Fox... Stampin' Up's Fox and Friends Stamp Set
I just love the whole look...the Stamp Set, the punch and sweet DSP Stack.
So much fun.
This design - Box Card, is quite popular at the moment. I've rounded the edges of mine to compliment the oval cut out.
This is my take on the Bakers Box. Using 1 sheet of A4 Cardstock = 1 very useable gift box.
I've added a window to the front with Happy Birthday stamped onto
window sheet with StazOn ink. Yay!
