I found the inspiration for this project while on a motorcycle ride through NW WI a couple weekends ago.  The daisies were in full bloom.  We went past field after field of daisies.  They were so beautiful.  They were truly inspirational, and I wanted to make something to remember our great ride by, so I came up with this:
 
 
I found this box file in the Silhouette store here.  I thought it was perfect for what I had in mind.
Here's another view of my 3D box...
You can see the depth of the box a little better in this view.  The box is layered, first being made out of green, then there's the white layer on top.
I used the Joy's Life "Pun in the Sun" stamp set on this box.  It is a very versatile set. I find myself using it ALL the time!
 
I have blog candy to give away! I have a 6x6 paper pad, some ribbon, stickers, and bling.  To be eligible, please follow my blog and leave a comment on this post.  To increase your chances to win, you can comment on the posts from Thursday through today (there are quite a few!).  I will choose a winner early next week.
Now, for even more great inspiration, hop over to Laura's blog.  You'll LOVE what she has for you!

  25. This definitely says "summer" to me. I also get a lot of inspiration when I'm riding with my husband (being on a motorcycle must do that--maybe the open, fresh air??). I can just picture the field of daisies that inspired you to create this box. I may have to case it for a card. It's just too nice. Thanks for sharing it with us at Crafty Creations this week. Good luck.
