The other project that everyone made at my open house was a box using the Box #2 Bigz XL Die.  We used two of the boxes and adhered them back to back to create a box that looks kind of like a small beverage carry box.  You can
use it as a gift for teachers, party hosts, friends, neighbors and fill it with candy, note cards, post-it notes and a pen, tea or coffee packets….just about anything.  This box gives a small gift an extra special little touch.

We had a great time today at our Sale-A-Bration open house.  Everyone had the opportunity to look at all of the items available during Sale-A-Bration and many of the items from the Occasions Mini Catalog.  Attendees had the opportunity to make one card and one box.  The card is pictured in this post.  I love how you can punch out the greeting and it fits right in the center of the main stamp in the Elementary Elegance Stamp Set.

January Tech Club Card #2

This one was pretty simple, but it was fun to use a different material to make the flower.  Any guesses???….  Ok, ok, it is a coffee filter!  I stamped all over the coffee filter.  Then I punched out three of the flowers, crumpled them up, distressed with Early Espresso.  I then sponged it with Melon Mambo, layered the three flowers and bound them together with a brad.
