Hugs by Donna Sledzik
Good morning everyone! Welcome to day two of the 2021 Memory Box Valentines Day release and blog blitz.
Instead of a card, I decided to make a quick home decor item for Valentine's Day. I used a Tim Holtz wood vignette box as the base for my project.
I started by painting the box with white acrylic paint. Once it was dry I sanded the edges of the box for a distressed look. I also sponged the edges with black ink.
Next I die cut the word "HUGS" from red cardstock and glued them to the front of the box. I stamped the "xoxo" with black ink under the words.
To finish the project I wrapped ribbon around the box and added a bow to the top. That's it! A quick and easy project.
Would you like a chance to win the new Twiggy HUGS die? Just leave a comment before 11:59 PM EST on Sunday, January 10th for a chance to win. One comment will be selected at random to win the die, and all winners will be posted on the blog Monday, January 11th at 5pm EST.
Good luck and have a great day!
