These speedy baskets are for the Fourth Friday Challenge at Paper Garden Projects:
Hope you can join us!
The challenge this month is to use background stamps (love 'em!)
and to use black too, if you'd like an extra chance to win--
(since it is Black Friday, after all.)

Swirl Background
(Cling Mounted stamp):
- Black cardstock
- Neenah White cardstock
- metallic turquoise pigment ink
- Versamark & white pigment ink
- Clear embossing powder & heat gun
- Copic markers
- Copic Spica clear glitter pen
- White Souffle pen
- Tombow Monomulti
- Oh so sticky tape
- Svarovski crystals
Step 1) Stamp & emboss snowmen (these are done in a metallic turquoise pigment ink with clear embossing powder.)
Step 2) Cut out & colour with Copic markers. Add Spica glitter pen to make the snow sparkle.
Step 3) Print & cut the label box template & trace it onto black cardstock. Cut & score the box.
You can find label box templates in this post here.
Step 4) To make swirly night skies: Cover the background stamps with Versamark & then White Pigment ink. Stamp onto the box & sprinkle on clear embossing powder. Use a heat gun to melt it.
Step 5) Adhere snowmen to the box & glue on some Swarovski crystals (or some other embellishment) for snow.
Step 6) Assemble boxes and add handles (made using the scraps from cutting out the box templates & heat embossed with background stamps the same way as the boxes.) Add white stitches with a Souffle pen, if you like.
