Sweet Soiree Card Box And Matching Cards!

Box Of Cards With Sweet Soiree'

The Sweet Soiree Speciality Designer Series Papers from the current Spring/Summer Stampin' Up Catalogue are gorgeous and were just begging to be used for a box like this.

The paper is more like card stock weight , is foiled and perfect for box making.

I think this might be my favourite design. I have used lots of it but it's hard to choose as they are all so lovely. They come in a pack of 12, 12x12 papers.

It will hold at least four matching cards and envelopes. Perfect to give as a gift.

Here is the You Tube Tutorial of how I made it and the matching cards.

Here are the dimensions to make the box as promised. All in inches.

DSP 11.5 x 8

With the long side at the top, score at 3/4", 5 3/8", 6 1/8", 10 3/4"

With the short side at the top score at 3/4" and 7 3/4 "

Here are the measurements to make the cards. (In cm)

Whisper White card bases - A4 scored at 10.5 and cut at 14.8 cm. This will give you two. Repeat to make four.

Layer -Matching card stock in Marina Mist and/or Berry Burst. 10 cm x 14.3 cm x 4

Layer - Designer Series Paper 9.5 cm x 13.8 cm x 4

Scraps of Whisper White, Marina Mist and Berry Burst Card stock to die cut the stitched shape circles and scalloped circles.

I used the Calypso Coral here from the same paper pack. They are gorgeously foiled. I have added some ombre Calypso Coral ribbon to make a belly band.

All the products I have used are shown below with clickable links to my shop.

These papers will be retiring with this catalogue at the end of May, also Marina Mist colour is retiring too to make way for some new colours! All retiring items will be while stocks last and sell out quite fast so if you would like them be sure to order early.

Fruit Basket - You Are The Sweetest! And You Tube Video.

I love the Tutti Frutti Suite in the new Spring Summer Catalogue. 

I was lucky enough to get the set of Mini Fruit Punches at Onstage in November. Onstage is a twice yearly convention held by Stampin' Up! just for it's demonstrators. We get to see all the new products before they are launched and take home plenty of freebies too!

So in my Pre Order I had to add the rest of the Suite of course! The matching stamp set is so fun and I love the coordinating 6 x 6 papers and self adhesive sequins too.

Both sides of the papers are lovely!

I had a Spring/Summer Catalogue /Saleabration Open House Party on Friday and this is the card we made for our Make n Take. So simple and easy to make a pretty Birthday card using just stamps and punches.

I used my favourite colour combo right now which is Lemon Lime Twist and Powder Pink. I added in some Real Red for the strawberries and a few Pool Party self adhesive sequins to finish it off.

Here is my You Tube video of how I made it.

We had so much fun with it, the ladies made a great job of their cards. We had a lovely evening. It's so much more fun to stamp with friends and share the excitement when a new range of products is released. Lots of cards were made and we had a raffle winner too.

I didn't use the papers on Friday's card but I included it on this one from previous card. Can you tell how much I love this colour combo 😂 I included the sequins in Lemon Lime twist on this one.

I really hope you like my card. Do subscribe to my blog for lots more inspiration dropping into your inbox. Just click the subscribe button at the top of the page.
