Jane's Doodles Release Blog Hop


Happy Friday! :o)

Welcome to a Jane's Doodles Release Blog HopToday we are featuring two new stamp sets released into the store. :o)

SUPER CUTENESS OVERLOAD!!! Love love LOVE!!!!! :o)


And here is what I prepared for today: Penguin Skating Sour Cream Container Gift Box using a super cute penguin stamp from the 'Sweater Weather' stamp set and snowflakes stamps form various Jane's Doodles stamp sets. :o)



How I made this Sour Cream Container Gift Box... 

First I created a patterned paper that I used to fold the container. I stamped randomly snowflakes on a Kraft paper in watermark stamping technique using VersaMark Watermark Ink. Then I cut a rectangle size 3" x 6" from it.

I mixed a white tempera color with a bit of water and splattered the snowflakes patterned paper and left it dry on air.

After drying, I folded the container. I found great photo tutorial here. I folded the container following the tutorial. I left one side of the container unglued and open to fill it with sweets or something else later.

Next up was the penguin. I stamped the penguin on a watercolor paper and colored him in watercolor technique with Distress Inks. After drying, I fussy cut the penguin and traced edges with a black marker.

Then I stamped the penguin again on a white cardstock paper. I colored him with a grey marker and fussy cut him, leaving thin white border around the penguin. I glued watercolored penguin over the grey one. I did this to make the image thicker, as the watercolor paper I use is very thin and I needed thicker image.

Then I drew white highlights on the penguin using a white gel pen.

If you follow my blog, you know I love dimension on my projects. This one was no exception. :o) I glued 3-D foams on the back of the penguin and glued him on the box.

As a finishing touch, I pierced a hole on the unglued part of the container and closed it with a brad. :o)



I love how my Sour Cream Container Gift Box turned out!! :o) I'm sure I'll make more of these to have them by hand to give some treats and sweets to my nieces or to pack tiny gifts inside for my family and friends. :o)
