Mommo's Convention Shoebox Swap



This is my moms shoebox swap 3-D project that she did for one of the LNS events at Convention ( which we leave for in two days!).
Here is how she did it:
The outside circles are the Scallop Circle #2 die cut with the Big Shot (the larger scallop). The center white is 2” circle, the red is the 2-1/2” circle punch and the suede is a 3” circle. The image is rolled in real red ink using the builder wheels School Colors, For Teacher and Elementary Alphabet. The bow is ¼” grosgrain Real Red ribbon.
The hinge used is a 1-1/2” square white paper that is scored at ¾” and 1”. On the inside are two more 3” circles in Soft Suede card stock, a small post-it note pad and a loop of paper to hold a small pencil.
To make the apple, use the Tab Punch out of whisper white card stock with the edges sponged with soft suede ink. Punch another tab in red and use the scallop edge punch to make the edges look bitten out of. Put 4 chocolate chip marks in the center for seeds with a marker and put Crystal Effects over them to look shiny.
These would be great for gifts or little party favors!
