Our theme as always is 'Anything Goes' but we have an optional twist too and this month it's 'Boxes'. For my inspiration, I have used the image Wedding Flowers. Please follow the links at the bottom of the page, for more wonderful images, challenge details and Facebook page etc!!. For my box, I decided to create a tissue box cover and here is what I created:-
My Project
Products Used
Julia Spiri - 'Wedding Flowers' Image
ProMarkers - Lavender, Lilac, Dusky Pink, Blossom, Meadow Green, Lime Zest and Mustard
Crafter's Companion - Watercolour Card
Trimcraft - Dovecraft Back to Basics Pretty in Pink 8x8 Papers
Creata - Purple Mirror Card and Pink Satin Card
Spellbinders - Labels 47 Decorative Elements Dies and Circle Die
JoyCraft - Butterfly Die
Ranger - Stickles Lemon Ice Glitter Glue
From My Stash - Purple Satin Card, Green Glitter Card, Gems, Peel-Offs and of course a box of tissues.
To make this I printed, coloured and carefully cut out 6 images. I then measured the tissue box, scored and cut out purple satin card, both for base (cut 2 pieces (Top)) and lid (Bottom), as shown here...
I glued the edges of the base together to form box shape. I then cut out mirror card and paper x 4, which I layered together round the base sides. I die cut purple satin card and pink card using labels 47, again 4 times. I placed these on each of the 4 sides, adding the images on top, along with die cut glitter butterflies.
For the lid, I added the same mirror card and paper, then cut out the centre, using circle die. I then glued together the sides to form lid shape, adding more card and paper round the sides, along with smaller cut images and butterflies.
To finish off, I added, glitter peel-offs, stickles glitter glue and gems.
