Just For You!
This month it's a bit different for the Creative Expressions Design team, this time we've been given the "Bon Voyage set from JustRite Stamps". These stamps are designed to work in conjunction with Spellbinders dies. I haven't got the perfect die for this set, but the lacy oval die seems to work reasonably well.
For a change I thought I would make something other than a card...hence...a pillow box..loads going on here...The box was made using card that I'd stamped and distressed using, stormy skies, black soot and weathered wood. I used a strip of designer paper that I stamped and distressed as per the main box. The label was stamped with Chipped Sapphire Distress ink (For You was from the rambling rose u mount set). The flower and leaves were die cut using Spellbinders Rose Creations and Foliage dies. A silver brad, a bit of silver krylon pen and some glossy accents finish the project off.
Oh almost forgot...fusible fibres and gunmetal stickles also got a little bit involved too..
I would like to enter this into several challenges as follows:
"One Stop Craft - Colour Challenge Blue"
"Rogue Redhead Designs - Dress Down, one designer paper"..you can't see it very well, it's the band wrapped around the pillow box, but I promise it is there!
"Squiggles and giggles - anything but a card"
"Fussy and Fancy - Make a gift anything but a card"
"Pile it On - Anything with a P...P for Pillow box and Paris"
"Hooked on Crafts - Punches and or die cuts"
"Lexi's Creations - No straight edges"
"My Craft Spot - Hand made flower power"
