Well, it could be a cross between a bag and a card, or in the case of this post, a cross between a box and a card.
One of the groups I'm in as a Stampin' Up Demonstrator gave us a challenge this week. We were to make a card with candy in it ... and the card had to be heart shaped.
I struggled with this all week. The first idea that popped into my head required a diecut that I just haven't had the chance to buy yet (I've only been a demo for about 4 months now and I'm building up my supply. :)) I started to make a pattern for what I wanted, keeping the idea of the diecut in mind. However, someone from the design team who gave us the challenge posted a very nice sample (and she's where I got the "bard" word from), and I decided, that wasn't the route for me. I wanted my submission to be different.
So in effect, I made a box. I used:
Paper: Red Riding Hood Cardstock, Candy Lane DSP
Ink: Red Riding Hood, Close to Cocoa
Punches: 1-1/4 Circle Punch, 1-3/8 Circle, Word Window
Accessories: Gold Brads
Here it is! The picture of what it looks like inside is a bit blurry because, well, its nearly 3am and I really should be in bed. :)
