Box and Background at The Cutting Cafe


I'm thinking about Christmas, so that explains why I immediately went to the Christmas goodies when Regina assiged a box and a background for this week's inspiration at The Cutting Cafe.  This Christmas treat is made with the Candy Cane box and  Candy Cane background. 


I created the background by combining the red and pink versions of the background.  I just printed the red and then opened the pink and offset it a little and ran the paper back through the printer again to get the pink stripes.  Love how this looks!



The circle sentiment is also from the Candy Cane Box set.  I can't wait to give this sweet treat at Christmas!   Be sure to check out the blog on Monday for the weekly special and on Wednesday for the inspiration (and probably a give-a-way, too).  Have a wonderful week!

    I had no idea that you made the stripes in the printer. How cool is that?! Looks like the box turned out really well. I love the scalloped trim.
