Rachel's 15th Birthday



My baby turned 15 yesterday.  Where has the time gone?

I used some of the techniques Ashley showed us in this week's Make it Monday #86:  The Inside Edition, to spiff up the inside of the card I made her.  I had previously posted this card here.



I also broke out my new Pillow Box die, and made a box to match the card.  Rachel is trying to save some money for a school trip later this year, so I filled the box with chocolates and some cash.



Here are the card and gift box together.



Here is a picture of my 'baby'.



Supplies Used for Pillow Box and Inside of Card:


Stamps:  Star Prints, Tag it's, Think Big
Paper:  White, Aqua Mist Patterns 
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black, Winter Wisteria, Hawaiian Shores, Orange Zest, Aqua Mist
Other:  Pillow Box Die, Twinery Twine 
 
 
Thanks for Visiting

  11. Awww Joyce, Rachel is beautiful! Look at that sweet fresh face, and gorgeous big eyes! I am only a bit older than you( I think) and my oldest is twice Rachel’s age.
    Love the matching set you made today. I just ordered that box on Monday not sure what I will use it for but when I saw it back in stock I had to have. Maybe a gift on each place setting for Thanksgiving.

  16. Joyce, these are all fabulous! The card and the pillow box are perfect! I can't believe Rachel is turning 15. When I think about it, that will be Leah in 10 years. It'll be here before I know it. Sigh.
