Box

I recently made a set of cards using the stamp set Potential, and I wanted to make something to put them in. The challenge at Use It or Lose It was to "upcycle." So I found an old Hickory Farms box and covered it with CTMH paper and decorated it. I like how it turned out. I used the sketch from the Sweet Stop. The challenge at Our Creative Corner was to emellish a frame. The challenge at Crazy4Challenges was to add a butterfly. And the colors were from Cr84Fn Color Challenge.

Materials used:
Paper: Mischief B&T, Dotty for you, Amethyst and Grey Wool cardstock
Stamps: Trellis, Potential
Ink: Grey Wool
Other: Bliss level 2 assortment, Sweet Leaf Ribbon, Red, Pink and Purple assortment sparkles
