Sharing Popcorn


This is our popcorn bowl from Crackerbox Palace. I can eat popcorn any time of the year, but mostly it seems to be in the winter. Our weather this April is cooler than it was in March, so I am still thinking of popcorn.
The saying has been stamped and I used Spellbinder for cutting out the frame with the gray and blue card stock. The burnt orange I just cut a square and rounded the corners. You really can't see it in the picture, but I tacked down the bottom of the saying and used popdots on the upper part of the saying so it has a slight slant to it just to make it more interesting.
The bowl has been paper shaped and glued just around the outer edge. I scribbled a yellow marker on the image to add some butter to the popcorn-who doesn't like buttered popcorn? Then I dotted and swirled (very lightly) liquid applique around the popcorn and heated it up to get the puff for the popcorn.
The salt shaker, I first put some clear glitter glue (Stickles) for the salt, then added liquid lacquer over the entire glass area.

Happy Birthday corner flowers

Happy Birthday was stamped with Crackerbox Palace stamps.
I cut out the design with Spellbinder in 2 shades of blue and put them together.
I added the pink flowers in the corners and the small pearls on the top, bottom and sides.
The ribbon was glued on the side.
I used a corner rounder punch around the image and the card.

Butterfly Thank You

The envelope also has the saying stamped on it with dusted pink ink on the corner and the punched butterflies are also glued on the envelope.
The printed paper is only half the size of the card.
Punch the printed paper at the size you want the top part of the card.
Using the same punch, punch one edge of the colored card stock.
When you glue the printed paper on the card, only glue the top part of the printed paper to the top of the card. Slip the pink card stock under the punched edge of the printed paper.
The bottom of the printed paper, turn the printed paper around so the punched edge is hid under the pink.
The Thank You is stamped with Crackerbox stamp.
The buterflies are punched out of scrap from the printed paper.
There are large pearls next to the saying and smaller pearls on the pink card stock on the punched area.
