Helping a Friend out!!!

Afternoon everyone,
Yesterday my friend got herself into a real state she had one of the pink gem stamps and she knew what she wanted to make but could she make it ...no ...so she came to see me and left it with me to do as it is a gift for her mum...written instructions to the side of me away I went not really knowing what I was making any way by late yesterday afternoon this is what I ended up with...
It turned out to be a box with the card attached to the top...it has four small matchboxes around the side I don't know where she got the instructions from but it must be somewhere on the web..




this is the inside of the card I inked just little Gem and left the basket off this time and cut two scalloped circles and two plain ones with my nesties...


This picture shows where the four little drawers are and I have lined them with the same paper and put a piece of white card over the front to hide the legs of the heart brads that I used for handles...the card sentiment is one that was free on a magazine and have just matted it on a small nestie and put some clear gloss finish on the top..


This is a side view of the box....I was pleased when it was finished with the way it turned out hope you like it... hope to be back later with a card take care.
