Hi Everyone
Welcome to the Top 10 Winners Blog Hop for Kylie Bertucci's International Stampin' Up! Highlights
You are currently at Mitosu Crafts with me Jay Soriano from the UK and I am so thankful to everyone that voted last month for my Climbing Orchid Wreath which enabled me to join the hop today
The theme is Teacher's Gifts and I wanted to create something that welcomed the new school year as kids go back to school now. I took inspiration from my highlight project using the Climbing Orchid Stamp Set and Orchid Builder Thinlits Bundle. Barry is making boxes like crazy lately and he recently made a Kirigami Box which I thought was perfect for my project!
I found the original pin that Barry used from Sharon Cheng and I used the same measurements but altering the height of the middle pot for easy closing. The hole on the top was made using the 1" Circle Punch and the Lemon Lime Twist Finely Woven Ribbon keeps the box closed
Like my original decor, I rolled copy papers for the stems then coloured with Garden Green Ink Refill, this time the Isopropyl Alcohol was in an Aqua Painter
I added wire inside for extra support and easy positioning
This Orchid in a Kirigami Box opens up and could be used as a desk tidy as well. Wouldn't this look lovely on a teacher's desk to welcome them every morning?!
The double bow ribbon is held by glue dots but a velcro dot would even be better for easy repositioning to decorate the opened box
Products used:
Inks: Pink Pirouette, Berry Burst, Fresh Fig & Garden Green
Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper (Powder Pink)
