The stamping is very basic. You may not always want to make an elaborate card, or sometimes you simply don't have time. But this shows you that a few minutes of simple stamping and punching can still make a gift special.

The box is 4x4 square by about 3-3/4" high. I jumped over to splitcoaststampers for my color palette. Today's color challenge is:
- so saffron-- used in cardstock and ribbon
- kraft--makes up the box, tag back, and card base
- not quite navy*--ink, cardstock layering
*actually supposed to be Night of Navy but I forgot by the time I got downstairs!
The decorative edge, created by the eyelet border punch, shows up even more when lined with a contrasting color.
The quick way to get everything to stay securely is sticky strip. I went through so many rolls before Christmas!!
- stamps used are the new Animal Stories and Teeny Tiny Wishes, both available to order starting on Wed. July 1 at noon.
Thanks for stopping by today! Tasha
