• You are looking at my Vintage Gas Pump 3D Box Card. This vintage gas pump made from off whit and green textured scrapbooking paper. With old vintage looking designer paper for the accents. Looks just like an old 1930's gas pump. I used a black and white ribbon for the gas pumps hose attached to the nozzle. I also added a matching green jewel brad for added interest.

    Chive Blossom White Wine Vinegar

  • You are looking at the Side of Fries 3D Pop-Up Box Card I made for a birthday card. This card is very colorful and is a lot of fun. It actually looks like a box of french fries that you would get from a fast food restaurant! For the box base I used red paper, with a blue layer going across the front of it. With a yellow layer on top of that. I also stamped "birthday wishes" in a label. That sits on top of the yellow layer. The french fries inside the box are a light yellow color. That I inked around with a light brown ink. The fries are also 3D that stand upright in the fry box.
