Sister Stamps Happy Meals- Inspired by Bona

Happy Meals are not just for kids right?  Well, I was watching one of my favorite You Tube Channels- Live Love Scrap by Bona (Hi Bona!).  She made these amazingly cute Happy Meal boxes and decorated them to give away.  Although she made them awhile ago, I filed it in my brain to eventually return to that tutorial so I could do my own take on it.  Here's the link to her amazing tutorial...  It's super easy to follow.
 
Since I was meeting up with some of my besties in Honolulu, I decided to make some of these Happy Meal boxes for them.  At first I wanted to use my new Prima Doll stamps, but those girls were just too big, so I resorted back to Sister Stamps.  I really wanted a vintage/shabby chic feel to it, so I went with my instinct and here's the end results...
 
All three were made using the new Prima Princess Collection paper line.  Used a variety of lace and embellishments.  Some I made (stick pins) and some were purchased.  The large bow on the top of the box was made using the Stampin up bow die. (Love that die!)  And because the recipients would appreciate the project, I decided to splurge and use some of my beloved bling that is saved for special people who will not just throw my project away!
 
I gave this one to Kyoko.  Added some home made stick pins for balance.
 





This one went to Linda... Used my new banner punch by Stampin up... Love it!


It's hard to see but I cut out the cupcake and replaced it with a heart embellishment.





And this last one was for Cami.  Used Minako cause she reminds me of Cami.  See the hamburger box on the side?  I ended up not giving it to them. Had so much issues with it. Instead I cut out the mini milk carton die and put that inside instead.





Hope you enjoyed my projects!  And thank you to Kyoko, Cami and Linda for a fun day at The Scrapper's Den and lunch!  I can't wait till we meet up again next month!

Wow, what a super neat idea! These happy meal boxes are stunning...what a wonderful way to re-purpose a box. What I love most about these are they way you used adorable Asian Sister Stamp images and made them fit perfectly into shabby chic...totally genius! This actually reminds me a lot of things I saw at the museum in Tokyo from the new Edo period when European influence began infusing parts of Japan...this is truly wonderful, Jenny!
