EmbellishBox for paper cutters

EmbellishBox for paper cutters {April box}

Posted on May 9, 2017May 9, 2017 by jenny

The weeks are going very quickly at the moment. I use my monthly subscriptions to mark the weeks and was very surprised to receive the latest Embellish Box. This is a monthly subscription box full of paper templates for paper cutting.

Each box is themed and the latest box was called Up Up and Away.

Inside the box were 4 x templates (Enjoying the view, Two balloons, Up up and away, and a balloon basket), 3 x backing papers from PaperStory.co.uk as well as some themed goodies: a hot air balloon lantern, cloud magnet, hanging hot air balloon and a little chocolate.

I started with the Two Balloons template and was pleasantly surprised that it only took me an hour to cut. It was lovely to make some time for my hobby as I have been spending far too much time on my blog lately.

There was a lovely selection of backing papers with this box. I would love to learn a little more about backing paper cuts. I know you can just add a single sheet of paper but I would love to try something a little more complicated with a couple of colours.

The total value of the EmbellishBox was £31.00 which I thought was good value as my subscription costs £18.00 a month.

    This is wonderful! I’d love to try these with my granddaughter. She’s been making new artwork to hang on her bedroom walls
