Hello Everyone,
What a glorious Saturday, err,huh,hum, it is Friday and a wonderful one it has been, little cool, but then it is Winter, but I have been having a wonderful time creating. Miss Shelley over at Shelley’s Land posted a pic this moring and said I should make my version, so I have done!!
Now this is so pretty. The die set used for the top and the bottom of the box is Marianne Creatables LR0236, a set of 4 dies and I have used the large base, the filligree base and the swirl on the side of the box.
It really is easy to create beautiful things when the beauty is in the die!!
I have also used the birdcage die Marianne Creatable LR0146, the Marianne Birdies and the gorgeous leafy flourishes Marianne Creatables LR0271.
Now there is a close up of the side with the swirl and that beautiful Marianne Birdie that I so love!!
Lace around the middle of the box with seam binding through and a double bow. Love my ribbon and bows.
Now you see inside the bottom of the box, so pretty seeing the die cut extend to inside and a lovely close up of the side of the top of the box too 🙂
The box is quite high and so would hold a nice amount of goodies, or choccies to give to someone nice!!
Oh an another of inside the box, and an inside of the top too, I put the die cute there as well because I thought it was so beautiful. Actually, no I didn’t, I made a mistake and stuck the lid down the wrong way round!!! So ended up with it there and had to cut another one for the top. Worked out quite pretty anyway, so not to worry.
So there you go, a lovely afternoon’s work 🙂
I will have instructions for this box available for purchase here on my blog at a later time. Just getting them ready now and working out the best way to go about it.
Thanks for calling in. Hope you are having a great day.
Hugs 🙂
Lauren
