This month’s kit is called Hugs from Shelli, and it was created by Stampin’ Up! Co-founder and Board Chair Shelli Gardner. It is a beautiful kit, and I had fun using it to make alternate projects. There are lots of ways to send hugs through the mail! Be sure to scroll down for more Hugs from Shelli goodies.

Here’s what I made:

A thank you card and coordinating treat box.

Here’s what I did:

Cut and scored with my Stampin’ Trimmer:

• inside of an envelope cut to 3-1/4″ x 4-3/4″ (pink pattern)
• envelope flap cut to 4″ x 1-1/4″ (solid pink)
• two envelope insides cut to 2″ x 4″, and scored in half at 2″ (pink pattern)
• one envelope cut to 2″ x 4″, and scored in half at 2″ (solid pink) 

Stamped with the Hugs From Shelli stamp set:

• Thank You in Early Espresso ink onto the 4″ x 1-1/4″ layer
• For You in Early Espresso on one end of the 2″ x 4″ solid pink piece

Cut using the 1/2″ Circle Punch:

• one side of a 2″ x 4″ pink patterned piece, to match the finger notch on the front of the box

Assembled the card:

• burnished the fold in a Crumb Cake card base with a Bone Folder
• pink pattern layer glued onto the front of the card base
• stamped layer glued onto the pink pattern layer
• vellum feather adhered over the sentiment layer using Mini Glue Dots
• bird adhered onto the pink pattern layer using Mini Glue Dots

Assembled the box:

• burnished the folds in the box with a Bone Folder, and folded in the bottom flaps to create the box
• 2″ x 4″ pink patterned pieces put in the box to line all four sides
• 2″ x 4″ solid pink piece put in the box so the sentiment shows through the top
• feather and bird adhered onto the top of the box using Mini Glue Dots
