I guess you could say that I’m on a box kick! My sweet friend Michelle Rodgers with Stamper’s Dream sent the the supplies to make up this fun Poinsettia II Victorian Treasure Box. It’s one of the many gorgeous samplings Stampers Dream has with Holly Berry House. The box is made up of one stamp that is stamped 4, 5 or 6 times then glued together on the side tabs; I stamped mine 5 times. There is no need for a top or bottom because the flaps take care of that too. Can you say easy? The poinsettia is a separate stamp called Persnickety Poinsettia Medallion Medium that is stamped out 5 times then cut out. Each time you cut it out there are certain leaves that you lop off. The stamp comes with a one page guide – you know for those of us who are visual *wink".
See, looking down on the poinsettia you can see the largest version on the bottom then on each layer moving up to the top it gets smaller. Just one stamp!!

I’m also sharing another card using the Our Daily Bread Designs releases for July. The sentiment is from the Let Us Begin set. I love how the different Spellbinders elements stack up. I was trying out this new release of Spellbinders Labels 9 and noticed that it was nice to slip both Spellbinders In Spades Pendant and Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Pendant behind it, just to give it a little interest.

That’s all for me today! I’m trying to get all my chores done so that I can go to CHA. Are you going?
What a gorgeous box Becca. I feel lie breaking out my Christmas music. It seems to be Christmas in July where ever I go. Imagine opening that box on Christmas morning. You say it’s easy and it looks like it would be very difficult. Such attention to detail. Your pink and green card is so very pretty. Oh so true the sentiment. TFS!!!
Becca- Will you be at a booth at CHA or just visiting around??? LOVED the cards!
Wow, both of these are awesome! The box is so cool, but I’m a sucker for your soft and beautiful cards, especially with ODBD sets! :)
You never cease to amaze me. :) Beautiful.
I just love your work. Thank you for inspiring all of us.
lucky you! enjoy CHA – this box is beautiful!

Good evening, Becca- another 2 beautiful projects. I, too, have the poinsettia medallion stamp although I don’t have the treasure box stamps. Medallion stamps are nice to work with.
Becca,
OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!
The box is beautiful. BRAVO, BRAVO.
The card is stunning as well.

What a classically elegant box Becca! Beautiful work with all the gold and the 3d poinsettia!

Beautiful work Becca. You are my inspiration. Would it be too much trouble to post the size cards you create when posting in the card recipe?
Your poinsettia box and card are both so very gorgeous! So very elegant as well!
I love Holly Berry stamps and I have these stamps myself. After visiting the factory/store in Colorado, i fell in love with all of their products. My husband even did the toy soldier one. He is amazing.
Oh my goodness, they are absolutely gorgeous. I only wished I had an once of the talent you have. I am blessed to be able to get inspiration from your creations.

[…] one I did was white card stock, gold embossing and colored with Tombow Markers; you can peek at it HERE. Night and Day, right? I wanted to change it up a little bit and this time I stamped […]
