I recently made these faceted gift boxes for Mother’s Day and wanted to make some coordinating cards and candy.  Stampin’ Up English Garden DSP is beautiful watercolored paper.  It is retiring May 31.  You can purchase it here.

One set is for my Mom and one set is for Superman’s Mom.

The candy is Hershey’s Nuggets Milk Chocolate with Toffee & Almonds in the gold wrapper.  I wrapped them in 1″ x 3″ strips of DSP.  I was going to add a flower on the top, but this paper is so stunning I didn’t want to cover it up.

I had a sweet birthday yesterday and will write a separate post to show you all the homemade cards I received.  I even received cards from some of you, including a beautiful card from Audrey and a sweet email from my stamping BSF friend, Ruth, who I also met through this blog.  Superman and I had a nice lunch out at Fire Creek.  They have the best tomato basil soup! For dinner I made a healthier version of one of my favorite meals called Ziti Cucina.  I really enjoyed all the birthday wishes at Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) and on Facebook.  One of the sweet gals in my BSF group, Crystal, made Revelation verse cards for each week of the study and gave them to every gal in our group today. Best gift ever!  Sweet daughter Abby made the most delicious carrot cake!  She actually went over the top this year.  She bought me beautiful Gerber daisies, pretty silver earrings, and a big bag of Blue Raspberry Jolly Ranchers. I love that girl!  Sean called me and sent Facebook wishes.  Ryan and Keegan bought me a pretty pot for my deck.  Keegan also gave me more than the one required hug per day!  I’ll take as many hugs as I can get from my awesome 15 year old.  I love my family!

Faceted Mother’s Day Gift Box

2016badge-watermelon

Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for April 2016.  We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our new 2016 Blog Hop monthly themes.  This month we are featuring projects that are all about our families. This is a great time of year to think about what to make for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or upcoming graduations. And, family vacations are just around the corner… how would you want to remember those special family moments? We hope to provide you with lots of ideas and that you enjoy our creations.

You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the Line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below.  The full lineup will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects.

Stampin' Up Mother's Day Faceted Gift Box made with the English Garden Designer Series Paper , designed by demo Beth McCullough. See more card and gift ideas at www.StampingMom.com #StampingMom

I love making boxes! I got the idea for this box from Pootles, a UK demo.  Do you see the triangles on the side?  In real life, this box is adorable! I made these Faceted Mother’s Day boxes for my Mom and Steve’s Mom.  They are about two inches tall and three inches wide, so there’s plenty of room for chocolate or a gift certificate.  Have you thought about what you are making for the special “Moms” in your life?

When I showed the boxes to my design assistant, Abby, she said, “Oh did you make those boxes for yourself, because you’re the best mother ever!.”  I love my seventeen year old daughter and I think she’s the best daughter ever!

Mother’s Day…a little late

Here are the cards I made for our mothers.  Even though I’m posting this in June, our Mom’s got them on time.  Steve and I have awesome mothers, and I wanted to make them something special.  I love the Framed Tulips embossing folder.  I even used this on my sister’s wedding invitations.  Unfortunately, it is retired now.  I use the Elegant and Bitty Butterfly punches all the time.  They are a must have for any crafter.20140622-200140-72100821.jpg

On this card I used the Pansy punch and Petite Petals punch which are both current.  I also used the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack which is now retired.  Well, which one do you like better?  I hope both our Mothers liked the one they got.20140622-200140-72100509.jpg
