Two Posts Today: Eggcoutrements Mini Milk Carton Container, Nursing Home, Winner, and More....

 

Good Afternoon Stampers,

Today I would love to share with you my version of Becky Roberts Mini Milk Carton. This was so easy to make and is perfect just in time for Easter.  I used the Eggcoutrements Stamp Set, Shades of Spring  Designer Series Paper, and many more new items found in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  This is a perfect gift for Easter and it is gender neutral.  I used the colors found in the Shades of Spring Designer Series Paper to make coordinating pieces for this project. The only hint of pink is in the beautiful Kiss Me Pink Metal Embossed Butterflies. 

This is such a wonderful project that is so versatile for many occasions.  I have several people having baby showers and weddings in the coming months, so this would make a perfect favor.  Wouldn't this be beautiful for a wedding with some Clear Window Sheets and some Metal Sheets in the color of the wedding?  There are many metal sheet colors to choose from to fit any occasion. 

Take a look at the beautiful detail these butterflies add to the milk carton.  It looks like the butterflies are just fluttering around the grass.  I LOVE IT!!  I added these butterflies to all four sides of the milk carton containers and it looks dazzling.  The metal embossed butterflies adds a very unique and different touch.  These butterflies are easy to make and can easily be attached with mini glue dots. 

For more information about the Metal Sheets you can purchase, please click on the Order Metal Sheets button located underneath the Order Online Button located on the upper right hand column of my blog.  The metal is beautiful and will add a dazzling touch.  If you are planning a wedding or baby shower how about sprinkling the beautiful metal butterflies on the table or place it inside the invitation? The ideas are endless.  If you have any questions about the metal sheets, please do not hesitate to contact me at monica@addalittledazzle.com.  I would love to answer your questions.

Thank you for all the lovely comments about this weekend's projects.  I will continue to attach a downloadable sheet for you.  I received many comments and randomly chose a winner among those.  The winner of the Valentine's Day Contest is Pam Gaynor.  Congratulations Pam!  Pam has won the Perfect Polka Dot Impressions Folder and the Small Heart Punch. 

What do you think of today's post?  Leave me a comment and be entered for a chance to win metal embossed butterflies in all the colors of metal sheets I carry.  I will pick a winner tomorrow morning, so make sure to leave me a comment with your thoughts.

The Mini Milk Cartons are so Springlike and bright. You can't help but be happy when you look at them. Your Butterflies really add a lot to the project, they look fantastic just fluttering around. I love the color. I bet those butterflies done up in all those different colors of metal are going to be gorgeous. I hope that I am the lucky winner. Have a wonderful evening, Monica.
