This is a double challenge card. Thursday we were to use fabric on our submission and Friday we were to make a milk box. Well you couldn't have challenged me more! I am really not a sewer but I did manage to find a stash of random fabrics in the closet. I am always challenged by 3D but after a couple of tries I figured out how these folds turn into this adorable box. So, thanks ladies for pushing me to incorporate new things into my stamping. I wanted to use a sweet Crafty Secrets valentine set, so I was inspired to use a French color combo of blue and red. I found this piece of red velvet, so I folded it into a panel and used a stick pin to keep it in place. I colored this little cupid with my copics and cut him out to place on the side of the carton. The box is held closed with a binder clip in red with a big X on it, keeping with the theme. The other side of the box has en Eiffel tower image cut out and adhered to the box.
How did I do? Thanks for your sweet comments, they are so encouraging.

Adorable! Great job combining the challenges. Like how you used the French color scheme. Clever. Bear stamp is so cute. Nicely done. What's going inside? A love letter perhaps? Very cute. TFS
