Loved the idea so had a go myself and it fitted perfectly with this fortnights challenge of ANYTHING BUT A CARD at Crafty Ribbons challenge blog so this was the outcome...even saw a you tube on the butterflies made out of prima flowers while i was there so had a go at them also..tehe, didnt get anything done the day i made these apart from hang washing out!!
Back of box
I used papers which already look a bit destessed , but mattered onto card and added distress ink to edges. Box was made out of old packaging from Christmas (yeah still had some around) it does need to be a thicker kind as tried with thinner card from another box and could not get it to stick very good!
added a double sided die cut stencil then covered in glitter
Flowers from stash, black butterflies are the prima flowers, add glossy accents to these to add the shine.
Used cosmic shimmer for the pink pearls effect
the pink ribbon round the bottom is wire edge ribbon from Crafty Ribbons
added four round feet on the very bottom which were just old buttons.
another button for the front to fasten with and a a tassle for decoration...
see thats why it took me all day...lol
well i hope you like it or maybe i have even inspired you too...
Have a lovely day and thanks for your visit today
adding card too
Aud sentiments challenge...anything goes
