Vintage Tri-Fold Birthday Card

I saw this card online and fell in love with it. I tried to find the artist to see if there was an svg file that I could buy. However, upon searching all I could find was a die for only the outside border of the panels. I could find nothing on the artist. So, I started from scratch. Made my own base and panels. Used digital paper that I either had or that I designed.

I scanned some of my mom's old recipes and printed to fit the card. I made some small pockets for gift cards, which close with Velcro.
I really love the way this turned out. I also made a little box for the card, since it is too thick for an envelope.

Happy Birthday, My Sweet Girl!

Sunny's Vintage TV Box

My younger grandson let me know that he really wanted me to make him a TV box. He's been asking for one for a few months. I found this one at Dreaming Tree. I believe it's a 1960s wood vaneer style console TV. 

The back even looks authentic. The black base you see is the bottom of the box. It's about 8" across.

The best part for my grandboy is that the knobs turn and, of course, it's a box. He loves containers, any kind of containers, more than anything.


Smile, You're in Sunny's TV!
