Show Your Grunge

Over on Simon Says Stamp and Show, the theme this week is 'grunge'.

I have made a box out of card, decorated it with some 7 Gypsies paper, edged in fired brick DI, the hinges are grunge paper, flower and leaves are also grunge paper, coloured with mustard seed and spiced marmalade.  Some machine and hand stitching, added a T!m sentiment and popped on some brads which I have distressed.

Filled box with chocolates, all ready to give to a friend. The photos aren't too good, seem to have a lot of reflection, the flash must have bounced back.
