Hello everyone! Let me introduce you to a brand-new collection of Garden Giggles Critters – GARDEN GIGGLES TOO! Are they just too, too fun! They come attached to their own Fancy Favor Treat Boxes which can hold an amazingly large amount of candy, trinkets, or just about anything your imagination can come up with! They would also look dashing adorning the front of a special card or scrapbook page! They could even make wall art or be used in home décor. Think how cute they would be brightening up a nursery or a child’s bedroom or bathroom. The possibilities are endless.
But I’m getting ahead of myself. Let me introduce you!
Meet Rascal, a Roly-Poly Bug
Max, a Mosquito
Spunky, the Spider
Slither, the Snake
and last, but not least, Wally, the Worm!
Don't you just love them! I'm head-over-heels! Each one has such personality. From the tip of their tails to the top of their baseball-capped heads, they are ready to fly, slither and slink their way into your hearts and your homes!
The Tutorial is more than 15 pages long and filled with detailed photos and clear instructions for assembling these little critters. Tutorials are available for $5 each and will be e-mailed to you as a PDF file. Tutorials generally are sent out once each day. I try my best to get them to you within 24 hours of your order. Tutorials also include a detailed list of supplies needed for each critter, especially helpful if you are not purchasing the kit or want to create multiples.
The kits include everything you need to put together all 5 projects -- Die Cut Fancy Favor Treat Boxes (colors vary from the Brights Collection), a packet of Fantasy Flowers pieces and all the punched shapes, die cuts and embellishments to create everything you see above. The Kits are $25 which includes postage. Once you place an order, I will respond with an e-mail giving you an anticipated shipping date, generally within a week of your order being placed. The PDF Tutorial is included in the price of the kit and will be e-mailed to you when your kit is mailed.
Kits can be shipped internationally but require additional postage. E-mail me in advance if you need the kits shipped out of the US and I will send you a PayPal invoice for both the kit and international shipping charges combined.
Supplies needed to assemble the kit include: SNAIL Adhesive, Sticky Strip Adhesive, Stampin’ Dimensionals!, Crystal Effects, Paper Snips and Bone Folder, Classic Ink Pads – Pacific Point, Basic Black, Real Red, Regal Rose and Old Olive (other colors could be substituted if you don’t have these) and Sponges for Each color, Sponge Dauber, Adhesive Remover Eraser (optional, but nice), Black Stampin’ Write Journaling Marker and a White Gel Pen, Hole Punch and Craft Hammer or Paper Piercer, and a Wide Oval Punch (for leaves).
I hope you fall in love with these little guys just as I have. By the way, they are not that little. They range in size from 4-7". The Fancy Favor Treat Boxes measure 3 x 2 x 3.5" high. There's room there for all kinds of goodies!
