back as promised with my second post for today please scroll down for my first one..As you may know I'm going to run a stall at the Blue Cross Animal charity's christmas craft fayre on saturday so yesterday I decided to have a play around ..and made these two boxes..I was pleased with the way they turned out..
For both boxes I have made 12 little boxes stacked and glued them in threes then put them around a piece of 9cm square board..covered the front's of the drawer's and the sideds with patterned paper...
I put a star shaped brad through the front of the drawer's for the handles..the feet are some wooden reels from hobbycraft which I have painted to match the colours I have used..the image has been coloured with distress inks and cut out with my one of my nesties...the flowers have been glittered .. they are from tabbycrafts the same as the gem dew drops...
The next box is using a technique from the craft stampers magazine by Sue Roddis..you put silver mirri board through an embossing folder then you use black acrylic ink rub it in with your finger and then wipe it straight off with some kitchen towel..leave it to dry and make the box the same as before..
The handle is again a wooden reel painted black and some wire threaded through..
On this one I have cut some strips of the card and glued them round the feet so it all ties in...hope you like them let me know what you think...enjoy the rest of the evening and see you tomorrow with a card..
