This month I decided to make a little gift box for a friend. I used the Decorative Flower Pot die and cut a front and a back and used a strip of cardstock to make the box. I stamped and cut the flowers from the Sunkissed Fleur stamp and die collection. I used a variety of Distress Paints, Glimmer Mist and Silks Acrylic paints to color the flowers. The centers were done with a pearl pen and I edged the petals with Diamond Stickles.I also stamped the leaf pattern onto the tissue paper to tie everything together. I stamped and cut the sentiment using the included tag dies.
This box could hold some candy or nuts or even a small hand lotion. It's also perfect for a couple of seed packets for Mother's Day.
