Today there’s a fun hop for the April Card Kit from Simon Says Stamp! More on the details below but first a quick run down of these quick and easy pillow boxes using the kit. These are so simple to put together; I cut a Pillow Box die from a piece of the gorgeous Bazzill kraft and gold paper and also from the Mint card. When I think of kraft pillow boxes I also think of doilies, so I popped a little of a white doily on each of the boxes. For the kraft box I applied the fabulous Pink Fresh Studio washi to scrap white card and cut out two Feathers, attaching them to the box with a flourish of twine and one of the gold star brads in the kit. I used the Pink Fresh Studio rub ons to add a sentiment to a piece of the white card, trimmed it out into a banner and tucked it in :D

For the Mint box I added a few of the random leaf pattern gold rub ons from Pink Fresh Studio down the side of the box before wrapping around the scrap of kraft and gold paper left from cutting the first box. I added a little piece of the Pink Fresh Studio washi and used the gold Pink Fresh Studio rub ons this time to add the sentiment to a scrap of black card and again finished off with a flourish of twine and a gold star brad.

I will be adding these to the Simon Says Stamp Card Kit Gallery, you can see more projects made with the kit and share you own there too :D
