The folded rose technique was moved to the January 21 meeting. I look forward to seeing everyone again and hearing about your holidays.We will create this lovely altered Band Aid tin or other small box and coordinated tag just in time for a special valentine's gift.
What do you put into such a tiny box?
Well, how about:
1. fun brads and other embellishments for an avid card maker or scrapper.
2. yummy chocolates (like those flat square Ghiradelli ones...yum!)
3. assorted gift tags.
4. a gift card or gift certificate to a favorite store
5. a few ATC trading cards
6. tiny scrolls printed with encouraging verses or sayings, rolled and tied with a tiny ribbon.
7. jewelry of all sorts and sizes
See? Lots of uses for this tiny treasure. And the beautiful rose design will make it a 'keeper' for sure!
Purchase background paper, 3/8" quilling strips, box, mulberry paper and ribbon before class. Don't forget quilling tools, glue and tape runner (to stick background paper to box). Project pictured above used:
Holly Lane mistletoe background paper
red quilling paper
green and white mulberry pieces
thin gold ribbon
band aid tin
1/8" green quilling paper for the leaves and tendrils (I will provide this)
If we get things done quickly, I will also demonstrate how to create Froebel stars
- a very lovely folded star that can be dipped in hot wax for a simple but elegant decoration or package trim.

OOHHH... Love the Band-aid tins!
I've used a number of times, even included them in CQ monthly kit a few months ago.
Hope you had a great class.
