Little Boxes

It's my turn to post over on the Craftwork Cards blog today, here's a couple of the things I made for them - these pop up box cards are everywhere at the moment, but the clever designers at CWC had the idea of producing packs of these base cards already cut and scored, so making them is a breeze.

Those of you who haven't seen them before, they have no base, so they fold totally flat for mailing, and they certainly have the wow factor. Here's a link to a YouTube video on making them

This first one uses the Kitsch paper collection....

and this one uses the Jacob collection, with all the little die cut elements cut with the Scan N Cut die cutter......

So here I am again, still not up to full speed yet, sitting at my craft desk would be a stretch too far at the moment, but I have stuff to show you, so hopefully as far as the blog goes I will be back in production now. I still haven't drawn a winner for the last Letraset giveaway, I'll post that tomorrow

As for the back - well! Who would have thought that putting a pair of socks on would require the endurance and training required of a marathon runner. All the things we take for granted when we are well, suddenly become terribly significant - who would have thought that climbing the stairs in an upright position rather than crawling up would be so exciting! So all these little things are magnified and seen as triumphs at the moment. I have the mantra 'I MUST get fit , I MUST get fit'................I have booked to take Kiki and Monty to Disneyland Paris in three weeks time. I MUST get fit......

It's nice to be back, see you tomorrow x
