Clare Buswell, a member of the 2012–13 SRM Design Team, also loves to play with containers. She has such talent! I look forward to every project that Clare makes, and this project is no exception. Clare has created an embossed SRM Pillow Box, sanded and gessoed, and embellished to perfection.

Here’s a close-up of the beautiful detail.

Clare then created a set of 6 shabby chic notecards and embellished them with SRM’s clear Fancy Sticker Sentiments. She also used a touch of SRM Borders along the edges of these cards. Such a perfect finishing touch.

Next she created a set of embossed SRM Glassine Bags to match her pillow box. Can you say SIGH? Embossing the boxes and bags is a simple way to take them from fun to fabulous! These bags serve as envelopes for the cards Clare created. I love the roses embossing folder.

Clare then tucked the cards and embossed bags into her embossed pillow box.

And here’s the final project! A beautiful gift container and a yummy stack of pre-made cards and envelopes all tied together with twine.

What a perfect project!
