What a fun challenge our challenge leader, Lisa, gave us! We were to use die cuts or punches. I used both!
I began with my brand new die for my Big Shot called Fancy Favor. I changed it up a bit, though. First thing was to trim off the "fancy" portion. I love the decorative trim that the box comes with but I wanted to use my SaleaBration FREE Scallop Trim Border punch. The intent was to weave some crochet thread through the holes of the trim. (Where's the crochet thread? Decided I did NOT like it, after all!) Before assembling the box, I stamped on the front and back of the box with the Vintage Vogue stamp set. Using some felt and the Birds and Blooms Sizzlet 4 pack, I added the bird atop an Large Oval punch, layered with the Scalloped Oval punch.
Hope you enjoy it and see what the other BC girls were punching and die cutting this week!
Hugs!

Hey Lisa! I love how you totally changed up the Fancy Favor box. It's so pretty with the Scallop Trim border. I am going to have to try this one.
How's the weather up north? We're getting hit with an ice storm right now. Ugh!!!
Great Job with the punch - it really looks great on that box!
What a great box! Love the color and design!
Very nice job to convert the fancy favor box! I like the idea to put some ribbon in that punch too, and came up with the same result as you. Great job!
This is gorgeous Lisa. I love your scallop trim border at the top of the fancy box. And the color...love it!
beautiful, love the border punch as the trim.
Great job on your box!
I would never think to change the top -- what a clear idea and I love it! I've got to start looking at these dies with a new eye...thanks for the inspiration!
