First up:
I really wanted to re-purpose a mini candy box I've been holding on to. It's the perfect size for a gift card - I was just watiting for the right project to come along. Once I saw Lulu, I knew exactly what to do!!!
I first covered the candy box in some fun paper I've been waiting to use. Then, I printed Lulu out, used some Spellbinders to die cut her out and colored her in with Prismacolor colored pencils. I added some rhinestones to the background, inked it up and paper pieced her wings. I also added Glossy Accents to them. I really wanted to use glitter, but I decided to go with the glossy accents instead. I also printed out the "Thinking of You" sentiment, punched it, and made the the center for the red flower in the upper corner. I used a Making Memories tag frame and another flower for some fun accents.
Above is the box, opened, waiting for a gift card!!! I really tried to push myself on this one with colors. I love the combo of pink, red, teal and brown together, but I don't use it too often, so I forced myself to use it this time.
Thanks for looking and I'll have another project for you shortly!!!
