 Scallop Tag Top Punch set

The Sentiment's are all heat embossed with Gold Embossing powder, the Naturals White and Crumb Cake card stock matches the Water Color Wonder Washi Tape perfectly

Card and Springwatch Diamond opening Tea Light box set 

 

I have seen so many of these cards made using the Scallop tag Top Punch, I just had to have a go at it,

 Look how the  Chalk talk Framelit  fits perfectly inside the Scallop Tag which I have punched at both ends (the piece of Crumb Cake measured 5.1 x 5.5cm before being punched) 

Open card 

Springwatch Diamond opening Tea Light box 

Here is a close up of the Springwatch Diamond opning Tea Light box I just love the way this box opens, I found the Tutorial on Pootles.co.uk click here for the Tutorial. The Tealight candles are Vanilla scented and of course they just had to match the card stock colours.
