Front door box card for April MFT & Friends

Yay, today I’m celebrating the April Release with a box card featuring a beautiful front door. All of the adorable images that I used to complete the scene, are from the BB Sittin’ Pretty stamp set.

After that I moved on to the card box itself… First I cut the pieces with dies from the Outside the Box Die-namics and Outside the Box Level Up Die-namics. I used both Smooth White Card Stock and a patterned paper from the Wallpaper Patterns Paper Pad for this. Then I used Scor-Tape to assemble the structure. Finally, I adhered the brick pattern paper to four of the sides.

It was so much fun to play around with the placement of all of the images. The front door was the first thing that I adhered, followed by the sweet girl. For my sentiment, I chose one of the dies from the Box Card Greetings Die-namics, which I cut out of Smooth White and Gold Shine card stock.

It was actually a left over from THIS box card from day 4 of the countdown. I can’t wait to see what my teammates and the surprise guest designers made to celebrate the April Release! Will you join me at the MFT Blog?
