Hi again!
I've been working on this little project for the past couple of days, and i have to say... i'm really pleased with how it's turned out :) It's a long time since i've said that about something i've made!
It's a very different style to my usual, but i wanted to try something a bit different, so here it is...
I made the box from cardboard and gum tape, so that hopefully(!) it will last a bit longer than if it was just cardstock stuck with glue.
The gorgeous image is a freebie from Magic Moonlight, which i printed onto linen effect cardstock, sanded, and inked with Antique Linen distress ink. Then i stuck a piece of acetate over the image, and covered it with a thick layer of 3D gloss to make a dome effect. (the acetate was to stop the printer ink smudging)
I went a bit OTT with the pearls, but anyways... it's pretty :P
The paper is by 7gypsies, but you can barely see it in the end because of the lace!
And all of the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and are glittered with 'Star Dust' stickles.
Then i just added some string and a heart charm... et voila!
