I Love You - Envelope Box

Hi, everyone, Kelli here!  I hope you are all having a great Saturday!  Today I have a fun envelope box to share with you.  For my main image I used the super cute Fergus Wishing by Wild Rose Studio and stamped him in Memento - Tuxedo Black ink.  He is actually sitting on a present but I just wiped off the ink on the part of the stamp I didn't want with my finger and then stamped it.  I love how this stamp can be versatile that way.

I gave this project more of a masculine feel because I thought it would be cute for my fiancé.  I colored Fergus with Copics:
R24, R22, R20
C5, C3, C1
Y35, Y13, Y11
YR16, YR15

The sentiment is from the Love 'n Breakfast set by Lawn Fawn.  The polka dots that are stamped on the grey card stock are from SP & Company.  I put some Glossy Accents on the red heart and also on the yellow of his feet and ears.

Here's a view of the box without the belly band.  I used some dimensional adhesive on the lower part of Fergus so that it would stop the belly band from falling lower on the box.  I also used some of the Prima Say it in Crystals as well for the same reason.

Here is a view of the back of the box.  The completed box is 5 1/4" x 3 1/4" x 1/2".  It would be perfect for 3 x 5 photos (what I made the box for originally) or really anything you can think of.  I'm thinking little individually wrapped candies!
Thanks so much for stopping by!  :)

So sweet image! Love your coloring! That box is really cool. Nice little box for a few gift cards.

What an adorable project!! I love Fergus, and you've colored him perfectly!

Great image and your coloring is just perfection! Thanks for the tip about removing the ink from the part of the stamp you do not want to show! Wonderful!
Hugs,

I made the box myself. I just came up with the dimensions as I was making it.
Thanks! :)
