The donuts in the Sweet Days stamp set were just begging to be in a bakery box, right?! I just had to create a card that looked like a box of donuts.
I first stamped all six donuts on the inside of a folded piece of cardstock (essentially a “card” that’s slightly smaller than an A2 card). Then I used rectangle dies to cut a window into the front of the “card”, and to create a thin gold frame.
I stamped a greeting from the Sweets Days stamp set on acetate and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder. Then I adhered the acetate to the gold frame, and the gold frame to the window.
The donuts were colored using Copic markers, and then the entire card/box was adhered to the front of an A2 card. This allows for the donut box to be opened, and then the full card opened.
