Pattie’s Pointer: It’s fun to cut spirals, stars, hearts, diamonds, borders and squares, and then squiggle on them with a gold paint pen. How about some happy words, like.....

“loved....blessings...miracles...surprises...kisses....magical...joy...happiness...
forever....kittens...rainbows...friends...sunshine...puppies....hugs...laughter...”

Steps:
1. Paint boxes in coordinating colors to match papers. Let Dry.
2. Cut various paper shapes and borders with decorative edge scissors. To create more texture, use a paper crimper, following manufacturer’s instructions. (See photo for ideas.)
3. Embellish with charms, tassels and gold paint pen or rubber stamps.
