Hello sweet people!
Back with another box :). This time it's one I bought though, for the Dutch girls, deze doos is van de Hema, je koopt ze met z'n tweetjes in elkaar en dit is de kleinste van de twee. Friends of ours had a very cute little boy they named Kian on September 2nd (as you can see on the label :) ) and we wanted to give them a gift. The absolutely adorable stamp is by Whipper Snapper Designs and it's called
Floppy Bunny Trio. The tickets are of course by Whimsy Stamps (love my ticket stamps and die) and I used the blank tickets from the
Friendship and the
Holiday set again, cut them both out with my
ticket die and hand-wrote the birth-date of little Kian and his place of birth which is actually Zoetermeer but in a free translation I wrote down Sweet Lake City :).
The letters for the name are Alpha Corrugated Kraft by Rusty Pickle, I've had those for ages and finally decided to use them. I've distressed them with paint and ink. The brown ribbon is from Wild Orchid Crafts and the design paper (I used a plate to make the circle) is from stash and very old and a piece of cardstock of course. I used my brown Memento dual tip marker for the faux stitching. I distressed everything with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Frayed Burlap (my favorite). Let's do a close up of the cute bunnies, colored with Copics and 3D paper pieced:
There are some white liquid pearls around them, took that from the tips posted on the blog of the brilliant Camilla
HERE. I can't imagine anybody not knowing her work but if you haven't here full blog is
HERE. A side view of the box with the lid, so you can see the 3D :) :
And the inside of the box, very cute little shoes and a set of a longsleeve and trousers. I ordered the shirt and the trousers from a dutch company named
Rainbowbabies and I let them print his name and his birth-year with a copyright symbol on the shirt in a flock print. Love personalized gifts like this!
Well hope you like the gift we got for Kian. I think his parents did and I'm sure Kian will to when he's grown into the cloths and shoes :). Take care!!
