My Recipe Box

Today I am sharing my Mary Engelbreit inspired recipe box, made possible by the darling files found at My Scrap Chick.

I started with the recipe box from the Recipe Box Set and made it exactly the size that it imported.  I covered all the sides with panels of patterned card stock and wrapped a Mary Engelbreit border, that I purchased nearly 15 years ago, around the bottom.  I then imported the Ann Estelle file and pulled out the flowers and cherries.  I affixed the flowers randomly all over the box.  And I just love it.  I hope you do too.

Both the files I used can be found at My Scrap Chick.

B L O O M

B L O O M ~ Mary Engelbreit style ♥

Can I just say that My Scrap Chick has only released one file so far of the ME line and I am hooked.  I have made 5 projects with just one file.  I can't get enough. 

Her style is just wonderful. 

I used the Alphabet Boxes and the ME Ann Estelle files for this project.

Summertime Bugs

I love these bugs.  Little paver shaped treat boxes are super whimsy to make your little treats as cute as can be.

Fill up the boxes and hand them out.

Miss Sunshine

I just love all things sunny.  I made this super cute sun.  I framed it in a shadow box and used Doodlebug Designs washi and pixie's for the rays.  The sun and face are from MY SCRAP CHICK.  I used Maya Road twine for the smile.

The file can be found here:

Carrot Patch Treat Boxes

An adorable carrot patch of treat boxes.  Easy to assemble.  So fun to make.  Make a few or make a lot.  Fill them up and give them out.  I have mine sitting in my kitchen window.  Makes a precious center piece. I used a YouTube tutorial to make the korker ribbon.
