This week's color challenge on the Little Paper Shop blog is a classic - red, blue and yellow. I went the fun route and created this quick gift for a co-worker.
The sun and wishing you fun sentiments are from "Jena Beach". I was leaning towards making the sun look more like a flower on the front of the box, so I inked up one stripe from the "Behind the Scenes" set for the stem. The box is made from the Perfect Presentation template - "Gift to Go". It is filled with peanut M&Ms and the box holds a lot - I used up over 1/2 a 14 oz bag!!!
Here are some closeups.
Have a wonderful start to your week and try to find some time to have fun in the sun. As you are reading this post I am having fun in the Arizona sun. Okay, "fun" probably is not the right word as I am at a conference and away from my stamping supplies!!!
Sunny Smiles Anyway, Julie

Did you cut it with your cricut? If so, wasn't it awesome? LOL I don't want to hand cut a darn thing anymore. I'm spoiled. I love how you decorated your box. I have such a hard time with primary color but obviously you don't! Fabulous work my friend!
