I'm officially a Close To My Heart (CMTH) consultant. That is the blog hop I will be participating in next month. So, to get started, I worked on covering the photo or recipe box I received in my new consultant kit.
I really didn't think I would use this but after thinking about it I realized it would be a good thing to store bling in -- BLING!! As in all the little bits of gems and pearls you add to your scrap-booking and card-making projects.
Supplies: CTMH Recipe Box, CTMH Bamboo Ink, CTMH Elelmental paper and Stamps from Wings and Live Inspired sets. I used an Antique Copper brad and bitty sparkles and regular sized pictures. The flower I made from some muslim and tulle that I had on had and a paper flower I already had too. I had some vintage lace too. I like girly girl things - can you tell?
First steps .... Start with the box and the supplies.
Next -- Ink the edges of the box, cut the paper and ink the edges. I made the flower - sorry no tutorial coming for that. LOL! I just keep adding until I'm happy with it.
Finally - put it all together using a strong adhesive! I used some double-sided super sticky adhesive I had on hand. The color of paper from the Elemental pack fits quite well with the color of my craft room --- ok -- it's the color of the entire first floor of my home. A very warm gold color.
Perfect! Perfect for storing my BLING!!
Decided I had better add on more finished picture. :)
