Another day another box...

Really enjoyed making the grunge box, so thought I'd make another, but different style.
Box front
Side view
I used 7 Gypsies papers, don't you just love them all, edged with DI vintage photo, some machine stitching, paper flower made out of same paper, then stamped with script stamp, Martha Stewart leaf punch, the image is a new Crafty Individual plate, which I absolutely adore.  

I went to supermarket to buy some chocolates to fill these boxes and on offer were huge tins of Cadbury's Roses shouting out 'buy me, buy me', so no excuses now for not making more of these boxes because I've got to get rid of the chocolates somehow.......

  17. like Sandra I love this one more than the first one. The colours are great, the image is fab and so are the flowers and leaves and as for the chocs they are yummy, I would have probably eaten them by now and had to go buy some more to fill the boxes.
