I've had some FUN!
I decided that to increase my creativity... and to challenge myself...
I would try the Just Add Ink challenge this week!
And this is what I made:

| Flower Shop Card in a Box |
It's the new Card in a Box that is sweeping the internet world!
Here is a pic of the Just Add Ink challenge - some pretty colours to choose from:
Whisper White, Daffodil Delight
and for the green I used Wild Wasabi.
I have a special friend who was turning 50 so I designed my card just for her...
Here's some more pics:

To make the Card in a Box, I followed a video which has been made by a fellow-Australian,
Tanya Bell. If you want to make one too, just pop over to her blog!
After I made the card I wanted to make a pretty envelope to pop it into - and of course I used the Envelope Punch Board by Stampin' Up!

| The Card in a Box folds flat for posting! |
 |
| Very easy to fold up! |
And here is the finished product - my Card in a Box using
Flower Shop Stamp Set and matching envelope.

I hope you've enjoyed looking at my little bunch of flowers...
I can tell you that the recipient did get a lovely surprise when she opened up this card!
EDITED TO ADD: Yay - I won an Honourable Mention over at the Just Add Ink challenge blog - yippee!!!!
