Cutest Little Gazebo Box

Hi, Stampers!  I hope you had a lovely week.  Mine was busy, but when haven't they been lately.  LOL  Last weekend I took some time to go play with my friend, Gwyn.  Hi, Gwyn!!  She was making cards, but I had seen a cute little box and wanted to try to figure it out.  I was inspired by Martha Lucia Gomez and while my box isn't just like hers, her idea got me started.


Isn't it the cutest little thing?!?  I just love it!  I used the Springtime Vintage paper from the Occasions Mini to decorate it along with some Rose Red Seam Binding Ribbon and a Key Trinket and the 2 step Bird Punch.  Wouldn't this make a magnificent Mother's Day or Graduation gift? 

We will be making this project at my next class on April 10th at 1:30.  If you'd like to join us, let me know.  You can call or email me for more information.  Until next time, remember if I can stamp, you can, too!  If you don't believe me, come to the next class!  :)

Edited:
My class has moved to a new date.  It will be Sunday afternoon April 17th at 1:30.  If you'd like to attend, please give me a call or drop me an email and I'll send you the address and directions.

Box O'Cards for SSC143 and LNS Challenge 62

As most of you have heard, I am trying to get ready for a craft fair. I also wanted to be able to play along in a couple of challenges. I managed to combing two challenges with a project perfect for the craft fair! I made a box of all occasion cards. It was fun. I hope you like them, too. You can click on any image to make it bigger.

There are four cards and an adorable box. I tried to get a good picture of the front and the side of the box so you could see it. I think it still needs some additional embellishments, but I'm not just sure what. What do you think? Should it say "Cards?" Should it have butterflies?
I could really use some input here, and I know you are just the ones to give me good information! Till next time!
I guess I forgot to give some info on the project. I used the bold bright cardstock along with whisper white, Happy Moments stamp set (free with a $50 purchase-ask me how) and our great Stampin' Write Markers to color the images. The flowers were made with tissue paper stamped in Pixie Pink with the Fine Flourish stamp and it is all tied up with white organza ribbon.
