Wedding Gift & Card

Today's post is to show you a card (which is already on my blog) and a gift for my son's best friend who got married yesterday! There is a bottle of champagne and some champagne flute glasses. Carl did not have a box for the glasses, so I had to make one for them, easy I thought but then I did not have any card bigger than 12 x 12. Oh no I thought what am I going to do! Then I remembered when I was blog hopping I found a tutorial for a box, just the bottom ( sorry I can't remember who's blog it was but I will try and find out so I can post a link here), so I set to work scaling down the pattern and when I was happy I made two boxes and stuck them together. Popped a glass in each box and used gold tissue paper around them, then I glass them up and finished the gift of with some cream and burgundy organza ribbon. If you click on the photo it will enlarge for you.


Enjoy!
Have a great Saturday!

  3. Oh forgot to mention the cat. It is too georgeous, what stunning colors. Cats are easy, clean sand box and food and a warm place to snuggle up and sure Adele will supply that. Don't be surprised if it just ups and goes though.
