Homemade Wrapping
Ever think about sending a friend a “just because” gift? I have done it a few times recently and I love it. I love the joy it brings the other person, even if it is a small gift or just a card. Today, Kimberly is sharing with us a little special something that she made using My Time Made Easy templates. I think any friend would feel special getting this in the mail with a little something special tucked inside, don’t you?
Kimberly printed My Time Made Easy papers on Bone cardstock, then printed the template and used it to cut her newly printed papers to made this adorable slider box. She added a border-punched strip of Day at Sea to add some extra pizazz. Topping it with a few simple embellishments added the perfect finishing touch.
Today’s Challenge: Make something for someone else. This can be a card, a tag, a postcard, a wall hanging, anything that you plan to give to someone else.

Rules for both of our month-long contests follow:
First, we are giving it all away! In honor of National Craft Month, we are holding a month long contest in March. The winner will receive 1 of every product in our store. That’s 291 sheets of cardstock, in every color, weight, and texture you could ever need! Here’s what you have to do to win: put our blinkie on your blog using the code available in the sidebar to the right. Leave us a comment (on this post) with a link to your blog where you posted our blinkie, and you are entered to win! That’s all there is to it! We will draw one very lucky winner on April 2nd. (if you already have our blinkie, leave us a comment and tell us that too, you are eligible to win).
Second, to celebrate National Craft Month, we are holding a month long contest here at Couture Cardstock, and your participation will determine the size of the prize! Each day during the month of March, we will be offering a challenge on our blog. Each day, you have one opportunity win a prize pack by completing that challenge and linking it to that day’s post. For every challenge entry received, we will add a sheet of cardstock to the prize pack. All entries must be posted by 11:59 pm EST the day of that challenge and the winner for each day will be selected the following morning. The minimum prize pack will be 10 sheets of your choice, the maximum depends on YOU!!
The details:
1. You may enter each challenge once (only one entry per person per day).
2. Entries must be posted in a gallery or on a personal blog, and must mention Couture Cardstock in the description.
3. You do not need to use Couture Cardstock in your entries, although we encourage you to do so.
4. Each project completed may only be used once.
5. All entries must by posted and linked to the corresponding challenge post by 11:59 pm EST, the day the challenge is posted.
6. The minimum prize pack per day will be 10 sheets of your choice.
Both contests are open to anyone, anywhere. However, International winners (outside the US) will be responsible for their own shipping costs.
Note: Prizes will all be shipped at the end of the month.
And that is a pretty project too!

Re: The person who created the comment that this was a good website truly needs to get their head evaluated.
Eurozone frontrunners upon Thursday night agreed to a new travelling across cope that will offer Portugal an enormous brand new bailout * but likely help it become the initial euro land to be able to default * and also drastically enhance the shape of the particular currency exchange union’s recovery account, allowing it to act pre-emptively when crises develop.
Have you given any consideration at all with translating your main web site in to French? I know a couple of of translaters right here that would certainly help you do it for no cost if you want to contact me personally.
Whenever I initially commented I clicked the
Dude! This blog site is cool. How do you make it look like this !?
