Card in a Box

Hello everyone!! I have decided to try out some new cardstocks from a craftng company so right now I am busy trying to use up all my existing cardstock which I bought from Popular bookstore before I stock up new cardstocks from this particular company. I will reveal the company name once I get my hands on the cardstocks.

 The reason why I'm switching out the cardstocks because sometimes it is hard to match the colours of the Popular cardstocks with my inks and patterned papers. At times, I do not like how my cards turned out because the cardstocks are not in the shade of colours that I imagined them to be.

 I used to prefer the Popular cardstocks over cardstocks from any crafting companies because of the price but now I know better. There are more choices in terms of colours to choose from. Not to mention, they measures at 8.5" x 11" which enables me to make 2 standard card bases out of 1 sheet of cardstock. Compared to this, Popular cardstocks only enables me to make 1 standard card base and I am left with a lot of scraps. Sometimes too much that I do not even know how to use them all.

 So I have been busying myself to use up all my current stock. I made a Card in a Box out of every colour that I have. I got this card idea from ChicnScratch.


Here are the cards I made using the idea:

 Let's rock 'n' roll!

 Take flight

 Up ,up and away!

 You're sew dang cute!

From the heart

 Celebrate

 Bee mine

Cool chick

 Time to celebrate

@ cup of thanks

I am planning to give away 3 of these projects for free. If you would like to take one home, please leave a comment on my blog telling me which is your favourite that you will like to have.

 That's all the update for today.
