5 Supply Fix: Milk Carton Box

I need a good challenge these days to get me creating. Don't you? I love the cooking show on Food Network called 5 Ingredient Fix.

Going with that inspiration, I decided to start a fun regular on my blog called "5 Supply Fix" These projects will feature 5 or fewer supplies (in addition to ink and paper).

So on this card the 5 supplies I challenged myself with were:
1. Daydream Medallions stamp set
2. Itty Bitty Banners stamp set
3. Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons
4. Mini Milk Carton Bigz L Die (Does anyone else find this thing a beast to figure out how to fold??)
5. Pistachio Pudding 3/8" Ruffle Stretch Trim (My favorite ribbon EVER!)

Ink: Versamark, Crumb Cake
Paper: Crisp Cantaloupe, Whisper White

Apparently there is a Bitty Banners Frame-Lit that goes with the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set, but I don't own it, so I just cut mine out by hand.

Demos: This would make a great make-n-take at a workshop or stamp club!
Everyone else: This would make a great little gift. Fill the milk carton with a favorite candy!

I hope you enjoy the projects I come up with for 5 Supply Fix. Maybe you'll be inspired to play along too!

Introducing 5 Supply Fix: Birthday Card & Gift Bag

I need a good challenge these days to get me creating. Don't you? I love the cooking show on Food Network called 5 Ingredient Fix.

Going with that inspiration, I decided to start a fun regular on my blog called "5 Supply Fix" These projects will feature 5 or fewer supplies (in addition to ink and paper).

So on this card the 5 supplies I challenged myself with were:
1. 2-3/8" Scallop Circle punch
2. Scallop Edge Border punch
3. In Color Boutique Details
4. Bermuda Bay Baker's Twine (Comes in the Tag a Bag Accessory Kit)
5. You're Amazing stamp set

I also used some carnival tickets I had but I'm not counting those. ;)
Ink: Bermuda Bay
Paper: Birthday Basics DSP, Summer Starfruit, Gumball Green, Very Vanilla

Of course every birthday card needs a matching bag to put a gift in. Here are the 5 supplies in addition to ink and card stock that I used for the bag:

1. Chevron Border punch

2. Tag a Bag Bundle

3. You're Amazing stamp set

4. White Baker's Twine

5. In Color Boutique Details

*I did not have Summer Starfruit ink so I stamped the ticket image in Versamark onto Summer Starfruit card stock and embossed it in clear embossing powder. I also didn't have the Ticket Duo Builder punch so I cut the ticket out by hand. 

Ink: Versamark

Paper: Birthday Basics DSP, Gumball Green, Summer Starfruit 

I hope you enjoy the projects I come up with for 5 Supply Fix. Maybe you'll be inspired to play along too!
