Milk Cartons

I am still overflowing with gratitude at all the wonderful comments that continue to trickle in! Thank you SOOOOOO much for your support. It means a LOT to me... and, as you can see, it does have a direct reflection on my incentive to post!! :)

Here are the Valentine boxes I made for some friends in my Bible study group. I just love the Mini Milk Carton Die for the Big Shot!! It is SO easy to put together (I do recommend using scrap paper for your first one until you figure it out)...

...and I love how you can leave one end of the top unglued so they can pop it out just like a real carton! In fact, I didn't glue the top at all, I just clipped one end shut!

I stamped the bottom with the signature stamp (before folding, of course!).

And although I made several different "looks", these were the only two designs I decided were "blog-worthy"!

Again, if you have any questions about how these work, feel free to drop me an e-mail.

Hugs to all my wonderful, loyal readers!
Michele

What a creative idea! I've never seen these little milk cartons before - so cute! Is the die exclusively Stampin Up?

Michele Force said...

Yes, Melissa, it's exclusive to Stampin' Up! Drop me an e-mail and I'd be happy to help you obtain one. :)
