Cased again but different

A few weeks ago I went to all day training for the Jems, this is the Stampin'Up team I belong to. If you would like to join get in touch for a chat. We are a very creative lot and support each other in so many ways.
One of the ladies , at the last minute, couldn't make it to training but she had made her swaps so ours were collected up for her and delivered and then she sent us hers out in the post. What a lovely surprise. It immediately inspired me, I could see so many things I could do in the same format. Whilst sat in the Den Elaine and I discussed it at length we also planned how we could enlarge it and what stamp sets we would use.... you'll have to watch out for those makes.

So whilst I ran a class for 2 of our regular ladies, we were making star boxes, infact we made 2 boxes and no card! Elaine got to work on the first creation in the same format as Anne's swap.

So many pretty elements, the little cream fancy circle on the bottom piece is one of the new doilies cut out centres. And those little punched flowers, we use those lots, so much easier than the thin lets as you make lots in a short time.

You can find Anne's blog here and this is her make.
