Lily's Get Better Box

I finished up Lily's Get Better Box late Tuesday evening in time for her to have it before going in for surgery early Wednesday morning.  Excuse the poor quality photos (it was dark out!) but take a peek at the finished box and its contents!


As you can see, I used a rubbermaid-style tote with colored handles for the box.  It's shoebox size.  For the label, I used Stampin' Up! cardstock in Whisper White, Lovely Lilac, and Green Galore and but and embossed the butterflies using my Big Shot Die Cut Machine (also from SU).  The lettering was printed onto the cardstock.  You can't tell in this photo, but I used Stampin' Dimensionals for some of the bigger butterflies so that they popped off the box a little to give a 3D effect.


My older niece, Mariah, was on hand to help Lily open her box.  Of course Lily had no idea what was going on and why she was getting presents, especially so early in the morning.  But she was rocking out her cupcake PJ's and having a ball all the same!

You met the pink bunny a couple of days ago... she was a hit...


And you'll remember the ribbon-trimmed bandanas, too.  Four in all...


There was also a storybook, some playdough, a coloring book and crayons, and a sticker book and stickers...


And finally, a comfy pair of PJ pants for when she comes home...


I hope that this little box of fun will help Lily have a speedy recovery, and can be used and refilled for years to come bringing just a little smile when she's feeling under the weather.


Feel better soon, Lily!

This is so sweet. I love the pattern on the pj pants, not to mention that adorable little bunny. Feel better, little Lily! :)
