Pointe Shoes Display Box

Posted in Altered & 3D Projects on 01/31/2018 08:00 am by Wendy

A pointe shoes display box can be a great keepsake because it keeps your shoes and it shows them beautifully.

As a dancer, your first pair of pointe shoes are special. Therefore I wanted a way to display my daughter’s shoes. I was able to create this special display using leftovers from this month’s Love Letters special, paper from the Basic Fundamentals Paper Packet, and Gold Pearls for a finishing touch. I could not be happier with this project!

Here’s what the box started out as:

Daughter’s Name Monogram using Love Letters

Posted in Altered & 3D Projects on 01/30/2018 08:00 am by Wendy

These Love Letters were so much fun to make and so easy! All the flowers are pre-cut in the kit. The only thing I added was the heart foil paper on the top half, everything else was included in the kit and there were LOTS of extra flowers for use on other projects! Chose the letter(s) you want but they are only available through the end of the month so get them now so you don’t miss out on this great National Papercrafting Month special by Close to My Heart.

Here is an example of this month’s Love Letters special. I left the pink flowers off for a more neutral look. The patterned paper on the top was added and there were many flowers left over.
