Here's two items I created with the paper:
One is a hat box I bought at Goodwill for $2.00. I traced the top and added a layer of coordinating paper around the band. For a bit of extra, I added 5/8" chocolate chip grosgrain ribbon.
The other object is a candy canister I had around for about a year! Opps! I never really knew what I wanted to do with it. I added some accents..using my coluzzle. The circle idea came from a card we made at convention that I have since lost so I can't share it. I changed the design a bit. I covered the wooden lid with an orange piece of the Haiku paper. I added a tag of More Mustard using my coluzzle and covered half of it in the green Haiku paper. The Bloom saying is from Bella's bloom, the free stamp set I won and the larger flower is from Eastern Blooms. I added some dimension by using brads in the flower center. The ribbon is Chocolate Chip taffeta ribbon. I also used my cropadile to add a jumbo brad.
I use these at workshops and to decorate my living room. Soon, Christmas will replace them and I will put them back in my stamp room!
