Butterfly Acetate Gift card Box

I can't believe that it is Wednesday already... where does all of our crafty time go during the week?  Being that it was a really fun and relaxing week for me i decided to have a little fun and mix up a few of the dies from Shadowbox to make this fun pillow box gift card holder.  I have a birthday coming up and wanted something fun and cheerful so i think this will work really good!

Using some of those things you have stashed away is always fun and i found these Graphic 45 calendar papers that made it even better.  I love the bright colors and the banded center with the butterfly really says spring.  I used Shapeabilities Shadowbox Ribbon Threader Etched Dies Shadowbox by Becca Feeken to created the layered band over the outside of the box and added the Shapeabilities Flutter Wing Shadowbox Butterflies Etched Dies Shadowbox by Becca Feeken to the top with a pretty rolled rose and bias ribbon bow to finish it.  Each of them creates such pretty details on the box.

You are going to love this butterfly and all the things you can use it for :)

The inside card is easy to make just by measuring where the plastic corners end and then cutting it.  You might have to trim it a few times before it fits in perfect but then you can add a strip of paper on both ends and add your gift card in the center.  How fun is that.  And don't forgot to add flowers.  There are so many dies by Becca that you can use and if you are running out of time you can always use some from your stash.

Thank you as always for stopping by and i have lots more to share so please check back soon!

  Hugs and Smiles.... Teresa
