Simply “Magnifique”
Take a look at these sweet little pillow boxes I made to house gift certificates for the winners of the Miss Clarke County & Jr. Miss Clarke County beauty pageant.
Of course, I had lots of help from my Cricut (love that bug!) and the new “Art Philosophy” cartridge exclusive to CTMH. Having this great cartridge makes my job big fun and super easy!!!! It even helps me make the cuts so I can create these beautiful paper flowers:
So excited I had the chance to be creative and share this with some neat girls!
You too can create this project (yes, even if you are not the creative type)….what better way to present your next gift card/certificate for teachers, clients, friends, family, or organizations. Just contact me for a list of upcoming classes. Let’s create together!!!!

Pillow Boxes & Paper Flowers
Love my Cricut!!!! I have to say, I didn’t play all too much with the Cricut until CTMH came out with their exclusive cartridge…now I can’t stop! I cannot believe what I have been able to create in just minutes thanks to this bug…
Here is a pillow box I made today in five minutes…yep, you heard me right. Take a look…..
I used less than a sheet of B&T paper from the CTMH “Elemental” paper pack, dark chocolate and colonial white striped ribbon, opaque adhesive gems, one of the beautiful embellishments from the Pewter Mini-Medley pack, and a stamped image from one of the Cricut cartridge coordinating stamp sets called “Celebration”.
The paper flowers are super simple to make and look so pretty when complete.
Let me know if you are interested in learning how to make your very own pillow box….classes will be scheduled soon so keep your eye out on the list of workshops that are upcoming!
