hey there campers!
it has been a busy week or so in my little part of paper land.
i have had a whole heap of celebrations
land at my feet so i have been busy buys busy making presents
the one i am showing off today is called a magic box
and i got the idea from this very clever lady called barbara
you should check out all the amazing creations at her blog
this box was made for my friend for her birthday.
her favoiurite colour is red.
i also decided i really really really needed
to go through my stash of dsp and use it up before some of it became
too retired lmao
here is the box all closed up.
i made a cute little birthday cake for the top using
punches and ribbon
take the lid off and inside is a cardboard peice of cake
complete with candle.
open the whole box up by taking the ribbon off and you get this!
this is a 12x12 sheet of dsp divided into 9 even squares
then i stuck co-ordinating card onto them
the lid comes off the cake to be a gift box.
i did the lid with whisper white card and embossed it with my big shot
inside is the real present
a necklace and earrings!
i'll be back later alligators for some more looksies at what i have been making
cheers ears
