February Craft Box Chocolate Box

The February Craft Box is already proving popular. Today I have a little Box for you that is perfect for presenting small bars of Chocolate in an elegant way.

Firstly though, I must apologise for the hiatus that meant I did not post yesterday. I have managed to pick up one of the many flu viruses that is doing the rounds in the UK at the moment and, although I shot the video for this and the next two projects before I succumbed, I did not manage to write the posts and do the other work that is require to bring these to you.

The box uses items from my February Craft Box, plus one of the optional stamp sets, You're Inspiring, to make this a perfect gift for Mother's Day. I have used one of the mini punches from the Itty Bitty Fruit Punch Pack to make an interesting way of attaching the ribbon around the box. I love looking at different ways to use tools, and this little punch is perfect for all kinds of uses, not just as a 'melon slice'.

I coloured the daffodils with Blends in the original and Watercolour Pencils in the video version, so used the appropriate ink for each; Memento Tuxedo Black for Blends and Archival Basic Black for the Watercolour Pencils. Both inks need to be fully dry before you colour to avoid any bleeding.

Remember that until 31st March, you will get FREE items for every £45 order (if you spend £90 you can either choose 2 Items, or 1 of the new Level 2 Items!!!).

All the basic items I have used are in my February Craft Box, or are an optional extra. You can find full details of this box on my Craft Kit Page. To reserve your, just email me at liz.yuille@artlover.com before 7th February 2018.

February Craft Box Cute Hello Easter Bunny Card

One of the optional extras in my February Craft Box is the Hello Easter stamp set from Stampin' Up!

I was not sure how this card was going to come together when I started designing it and then I realised I needed to pare it down.

A cute bunny, some flowers and a little sentiment was all the stamping needed. Add a few punched and die-cut pieces, the cutest little bow and it was done.

The bright Daffodil Delight is the perfect foil for the subtle watercolour look of the Designer Series Paper.

I hope you enjoyed this project. 

All the details of the February Craft Box are on the Craft Box page of my blog. For just £20, get about £20 of top quality products delivered to your door. No extra Postage charges, just £20 to get the Craft Box delivered direct from me to you.

February Craft Box Hello Easter Egg Box

This is the first project I am sharing with you using the Daisy Delight February Craft Box. I think we forget that we have an Annual Catalogue sometimes, as we all get carried away with the new products in the Spring/Summer Catalogue.

I wanted a Craft Box that would be perfect for Mother's Day (or Mothering Sunday for the traditionalists like me), Easter and all things Spring. Delightful Daisy does that for me.

It is bright and floral, which is just what I was looking for. It also has a certain elegance as well, which would be ideal for a Spring wedding too.

Today's project is quick and easy. It uses one of the Clear Treat Boxes, a strip of card stock and just one narrow strip of Designer Series Paper cut into three squares. Add a piece of ribbon, a tag and it is done. Perfect for mini Easter Eggs or and small item.

So have I convinced you that you need this Craft Box in your life? Remember, it contains about £20 of product chosen by me to work together perfectly.

If you bought all the items in full quantities, even using mixed card packs, you would spend over £85 plus delivery.

£20 you will have it delivered to your door. Everything will be beautifully packaged and wrapped in my signature yellow tissue paper, placed in a letter box friendly box and then one of my pretty floral polythene envelopes to protect it from the elements. No hidden postage charges, just £20 to your door. Full details are on my Craft Box page.

Deadline for ordering is Wednesday  7th February. I will place the order early on the following morning and hope to have the packages ready to post out by 17th February 2018 (delivery from Stampin' Up! permitting).
