Good morning all. It's my birthday today :) so I'm hoping to get spoilt all day!
It's time for our next challenge over at CCWS and we hope you're playing along with us this year and stocking up on those Christmas cards and projects. It's the Snow Angels turn this week and Marion has designed the sketch this time. We also have a recipe for you to use - at least 3 DPs, flowers and a charm. We are being sponsored by Elizabeth Bell.
I decided to upcycle a box for this challenge! I've used three different tissue papers to cover the lid and a paper from Papermania for the triangle. The image is from La Blanche and I've stamped with silver ink and mounted onto silver mirri card. The flower arrangement and ribbon were rescued from a Christmas cake. Charm, holly ribbon, sentiment and buttons from my stash.
It wasn't easy to get a good photo of the box!
A close up of the flower arrangement and charm.
