Box of Cards using Stampin Up Fable Friends.

So who likes Beatrix Potter? She was an English Author, illustrator, natural scientist and conservationist born in 1866 in Kensington in London. As a child I was lucky enough to be given a couple of her books, The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies (Flopsy's brother was Peter Rabbit) and The Tale of Benjamin Bunny (Peter Rabbit's cousin).

These books were part of my childhood and I can remember my mother reading them to me, tucked up in bed as a night time story.

So when Stampin Up brought out FABLE FRIENDS I was delighted that the images closely resembled those lovely characters with Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddleduck and Squirrel Nutkin.

I wanted to make a box of 6 cards with 2 of each of these three characters.

The box is a very simple construction, just a box with a lid.  The sizes are

Lid

8 1/4" square piece of cardstock scored at 1" and 2" on all sides

Base

8 1/8" square piece of cardstock scored at 1" and 2" on all sides.

Cards

8" x 4" cardstock base scored at 4" to give you the 4" square card

matt of dsp (patterned paper) 3 3/4" square so a quarter of an inch smaller.

A circle cut from the STITCHED SHAPES DIES using the largest circle.

The dsp (patterned paper) is NEUTRALS 6" x 6"

The Fable Friend images were just fussy cut with a good pair of sharp scissors.

Here is  step by step video tutorial so you can have a go at making these cards and the box.  Don't forget this is just an ideas you can make these cards and box using whatever stamps and papers you may have.
