Project
Place the swirl box flat on a craft mat. Squeeze 3 drops of each of the alcohol inks and 2 drops of Blending Solution onto the applicator pad. Tap randomly on the surface until covered. Add 2 drops of Gold Metallic Mixative to the pad and apply to the surface randomly. Set aside to dry.
Fill a shallow plastic container with ½ cup water. Squeeze in 3 drops of Cranberry alcohol ink. Place a cream silk poinsettia and a 3”x1 5/8” piece of glossy white cardstock in the water and let soak for an hour. Remove and let dry. Stamp “to” and “from” on the cardstock and mat onto chocolate cardstock, leaving a ¾” border at the top.
Fold up the box and wrap with brown swirl ribbon. Attach the tag and poinsettia to the ribbon with the brad, inserting the brad only through the knot in the ribbon.
