I had so much fun making this little milk carton. I filled it with Lindt chocolates for a coworker who has gone to India to get married. Congratulations Surveen! Next time I make one I am going to fill it with Whoppers, you know the maltedmilk chocolates. I found them at Toys 'R' Us in Surrey. Seems like I'm hangin'out in Surrey a lot doesn't it? The blue one is from the demonstrator web site. I downloaded the template and made my own. I am sure you can tell which is which. All images copyright Stampin'Up! Contact me if you want a template of your own. The scoring was the only tricky part. I used an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of cardstock but you could use a photocopier to make any size you want. I now remember Whoppers are sickly sweet. Patrick just had to open the bag! Not a good choice for breakfast!
Stampin' Up! is launching new products in July as part of their Online Exclusives, including the "Perfectly Pears" suite and coordinating Mossy Meadow ribbon. Additionally, there's a new kit collection.
I think I was feeling nostalgic for Ruby Red, River Rock, Soft Sky and Bayou Blue when I started this set. I wanted to create something not at all feminine but it didn't turn out as particularily masculine. I only had scraps of River Rock and was lacking in matching ribbon as well so it was a bit more challenging than I anticipated. I planned to use a the inks that matched and a stamp set I really like and have been hanging on to since Spring 2008 {pictured below} but once I got my Big Shot and my Stars #2 Die out all the plans changed. This set was offered with a 5"x5" little album and papers and cardstock stickers in Pumkin and Olive and Bashful Blue which I also still have a few pieces left from now that I think about it. I feel some more inspiration coming on. I enjoyed the kit so much because I made a lovely little album for my elderly cousin Eda with a collection of photos from her yearly family picnics. I put the finishing touches on it in the car on the way there ...
