Watercolor Melon two-piece gift box for gum

Today's project is a 3D project.  When I first saw the Watercolor Melon stamp set, I knew I needed to make some sort of watermelon flavored treat box.  So I went down to the local convenience store to see what I could find that was watermelon flavored and would fit the stamp sizes I had.  This is what I found that was relatively inexpensive.  Of course, I could have used some smaller candies, but that wasn't the size I was looking for.  I hope you like the gift box.  My granddaughter can't wait to get one of them.  To see how I put my box together, be sure to watch the video replay over on YouTube.

Watercolor Melon--Enjoy the sweeter things in life

 I hope everyone is having a great week.  It's been a very productive one here in the studio.  Today, I have a quick and simple card for you using the Sale a-bration (SAB) free choice stamp set of Watercolor Melon.  SAB goes through the end of this month, so if you want this one, you'll have to get it sooner rather than later.  I love how easy the images in this stamp set are to use and the depth and dimension you get with the stamps is pretty incredible.  This set is one that is called Distinktive.  They are my favorite kind of stamps as they do most of the work for you and you look like an artist.  To see how I've put this card together, be sure to watch the video replay over on YouTube.
