Recently, I went to a bridal shower. My mom, my sister and I bought kitchen stuff and put it into a huge beverage tub from Target. I ran home to make a card for it. I decided to copy the artwork on the bucket and it was a huge hit. Everyone asked where we had found a bucket with matching card. I failed to take a picture of it (boo me) but have since tried my hand at making other cards to compliment some gift containers I bought.
Here’s what I did:
I got this container at Michael’s for $0.89! They have a ribbon handle and the lid has a cut out so you can see what goodies are inside.
The branch and flowers are flocked. The bird and wing are cut out from some paper I had on hand. Granted this card is almost as big as the container but that just leaves more room for a sweet note.
Again, this container was a steal and has the same cut out lid.
It took forever to cut out the blue swirly part but I think it was well worth it. This card is also big compared to the container but any smaller and I wouldn’t have been able to stamp the words on it.
This container was on sale for $1.50. The front of it is a clear panel for goodie viewing but I took a picture of the side to see where I got my idea for the card.
I lightly stamped the cherries on the white background. Then I glued the little cherries appliqué on it. The red of the card is slightly washed out but in person looks nearly identical to the container.
