valentine's day boxes | echo park paper

Welcome to February! It's time to start thinking about Valentine's Day gifts...and how we're going to wrap them up. ♥ Here's a fun little idea for treats or smaller gifts (including gift cards). 

I created this set of boxes for Echo Park Paper using Carta Bella's "My Valentine" collection - isn't it pretty?!?

I cut the boxes with my Silhouette Cameo using a digital cut file. 

To created the shapes on the tops, I used some of Echo Park's metal die cuts with faux stitching around the edges - these are honestly one of my favorite products ever! 

How would you fill up these sweet little boxes?

winter tag set | echo park paper

 We are having the snowiest winter we've had in a very long time!

It's simply magical and oh, so beautiful!

In honor of this magical winter, I created this set of circle shaped tags for 

Echo Park Paper using their "The Magic of Winter" collection.

Aren't those snowmen and penguins so adorable?

snow adorable | echo park paper

I created this layout for Echo Park Paper using their "The Magic of Winter" collection. 

I couldn't resist using the adorable winter blues for this photo of my cute kiddo playing in the snow!

One of my favorite go-to techniques is machine stitching - I stitched a double frame around this page.

And I love the faux stitching on these "stitched circle" dies too!
