One of Paper Crafts' recent publications (350 Cards and Gifts) inspired today's project. You can read more about the Little Gifts Challenge here. A gift box (nashvillewraps.com #SB738) houses six identical cards and envelopes.
May Arts 1" teal organdy bow makes for easy access to the box contents. The card bases are a retired color from Memory Box.
Spellbinders die was airbrushed (with the die in place) using a light Copic marker; sewing machine image from Hero Arts' Sew Artsy set was stamped using October Afternoon's 8x8 Thrift Shop pad then carefully cut out and adhered with foam tape. Lace is Prima and the strip of patterned paper above the lace is a strip of 12x12 Collectors Item.
White Opal Liquid Pearls accent the sewing machine dials.
Interior - stitch line is from the Hero Arts set, leftover 8x8 Thrift Shop paper was punched with a Martha lace punch, and the sentiment was created on my computer. Faux button was created using the smallest Spellbinders circle die, airbrushing the circle with the die in place (heavy color application) then with the die removed (light color application). Button holes were created using a 1.0 Copic Multiliner.
