Hi everyone – Happy Saturday.
Kelly has set the theme for this weeks Social Stamping Blog Host as “Out of the Box”
Some of the ladies participating this week were wondering what the theme meant – including me! So it will be fun to see the all projects in the Blog Host.
I debated what the theme meant – could it be something in a box, something made out of a box, new stamps that arrived in a box or maybe a diorama?
While I was pondering what I was going to make, I received a Birthday Gift in the post (delayed by the Post) from my lovely sister.
With it was the most wonderful handmade card (she never fails to Wow and surprise me). The card was perfect for this theme so after some discussion I decided to make my version of it.
Here it is;
I used the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp set, Flowers for Every Season DSP, Misty Moonlight Ribbon and the retired Window Box dies.
This was such a fun project to put together and I can see that I will make more of them in future.
I could not finish this post without showing you the card Nadine sent me. I love it!
As I said before, I think this Blog Host is going to be great, with lots of different fun projects. I encourage you to visit everyone’s blog and enjoy the projects that we are sharing.

Wow! Both are beautiful cards. I love how you’ve used the window box to create a box card.
I do like to keep things interesting with a theme that’s a little ‘out of the box’!!! But it worked out perfectly because these cards are amazing and I’m so glad you got to share them with us. Kelly x
Pretty! That’s amazing and well done to your sister too you are in a very creative family xx
I love your Sunflower window box Chantel, maybe I need to get this set after seeing your wonderful project x
Amazing creations, both of them. I so admire your time and patience in putting this together, with all the little details. How lucky are you to have a crafty sister? 🙂 Siobhan.
Oh wow, now this is a stunner, such a clever idea and also love the card your sister made a great that it arrived in such good condition too 🙂
I’ve never seen box cards this shape before Chantall. Quite stunning! Happy belated birthday 🙂 Vicky x
Absolutely gorgeous! Does it fold flat somehow for mailing?
Yes, it does fold flat for mailing – fit’s into a standard size envelope too!
