Sending Sunshine for Cloudy Days

Supply List for Sunshine Card and Box

I am excited to be hopping with the Stampin' Friends again. This month, we are sharing projects to brighten someone's day or send them well wishes. If you've been hopping along, you've joined me from Kim Quade's blog. When you're done here, I hope you will continue on to Barbara Welch's. You'll find a complete list of the blog hop links below.

For my projects, I created a card and a mini candy box featuring sun images made by piecing together basic die-cut shapes: triangles and circles. For both of these, I used the Stitched Shapes, Stitched Triangles, and Stitched Rectangle dies. I love the stitching on the edge of these dies as it helps give it a finished edge. To make the die-cut shapes pop even more, I sponged the edges. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Cutting Dimensions:
Mango Melody cardstock: 9 1/4" x 7 1/2", scored at 3 3/4"
Mango Melody cardstock: 3 large triangles, 4 medium triangles, 7 small triangles
Daffodil Delight: 6 medium triangles, 1 circle
Whisper White: 1 large circle, 1 medium large circle, 2 medium small circles, 2 small circles, 1 rectangle
Balmy Blue: 9" x 2 3/4"
​Pumpkin Pie: 9 1/4" x 1/4"

A couple of Ghiradelli chocolates in a sunny box is sure to brighten anyone's day. This box was inspired by one made by Connie Stewart. When you open the box, a sun pops up to reveal two Ghiradelli squares. What a fun and sunny surprise!

Cutting Dimensions:
Daffodil Delight: 6 1/4" x 4 1/2", score all four sides at 3/4", then score the 6 1/4" direction at 2 3/4" x and 3 1/2"
Daffodil Delight: 7 small triangles, 1 small circle

There are complete instructions for cutting and assembling the box in the video. It may be helpful to refer to the cutting diagram to the right. Score on the dotted lines and cut on the solid lines. The outside scored lines are at 3/4" on all sides.
