A fun challenge this month. - Great inspiration from Jo and Gail and their guest this month. I have made a little 4" square red box -
I used some red card to make my little box - the side is 1" tall and the lid is 3/4" tall. I took some more of the red card and run it through my Cuttlebug with the folder. It was one that came with a magazine a long time ago. To make it stand out, I rubbed some white Color Box Frost White ink with a bit extra around the edges. I punched the three flowers and then put them through the embossing folder as well to add texture. Hard to see in the photo, but looks great in real life. The leaves were sitting in my scrap container from Christmas.
Just a quick little box that I will use to add a gift for a friend's birthday.
Hope your weekend is going well. We did a big 7k walk this morning and ended up at the local Cafe for breakfast. It was a stunning morning for walking - we did the pipeline along the between Campbells Bay Beach - Mairangi Bay Beach - to Murrays Bay Beach. Always a good walk, then up the hill before coming back down to Murrays Bay and the Cafe. Take care out there people.
