As it is anything goes this week I decided I would make one of the tea-light holder cards from the fantastic tutorial on the Stamparctic blog but adapt it to hold some small toiletries as I wanted a small birthday gift for a friend. I got two small bottles of Dior bath and body lotions knowing they were the right length and width (head to toe) - but guess what - they are too fat so that is one I'm going to have to re-think!!!

I used the lovely Tilda with many Hearts and coloured her with the usual Copics then cut her out using the Nestabilities Labels 4. I used the Tim Holtz Vintage Shabby papers, the flowers are Prima Athena flowers which I coloured with Copics and the swirls and leaves cut with the Magnolia Doohickey Die. The butterfly is cut with at Martha Stewart Butterfly punch.
The pearls I used are Hero Arts. I inked all my edges with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink and also died the voile ribbon with this. I have miles of this (well slight exaggeration!!) and the Tim Holtz range of inks colour it beautifully!

Love this gift box, the papers are just perfect and your image is beautifully coloured. :)
ReplyDeleteOh this is gorgeous hun I am sure the friend whom is going to get it doesn't care if the bath bottles are too fat at all xxx
ReplyDeleteOh this is a perfect gift. When you said it was too fat i thought perhaps some flat sampler type ones may be better......but you showed the inside and it looks great. I love the blues and the tag on the inside is WonderBAR! TFS.
