How to fill a trash can quickly!

I'll tell you how....design a cross shaped box!  I created this box pattern last year and let's just say, more than a few ended up in the ol' circular file!!  At the end of all the trial and error I was happy with the box design but not so thrilled with how I decorated it.  So, this Easter I wanted to make an updated version but I couldn't find my box pattern....grrr!  Luckily I still had last year's " ugly" version that I didn't mind dismantling to get the measurements right.  Two days later and I have my entry for SUO Challenge #94. I also made this cute, matching card in case I decide to give this one away.


STAMPS: Teeny Tiny Wishes
PAPER: So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, Pool Party, Wonder Wisteria, Whisper White,  I Am Me DSP
INK: So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, Pool Party, Wonder Wisteria
OTHER: Spiral Flower Originals die, Bitty Banners Framelits, 7/8" Scallop Circle punch, Punch Pack, retired Blossom Petals punch, Boho Blossoms punch, Square Lattice EF, Basic Pearls


Thanks for stopping by!
