The Theme This Month Is Flowers

Hi Everyone,

Today I want to tell you about the

 Crafter's Companion's Challenge Blog.

This month the theme is flowers.

All you have to do is, use a

Crafter's Companion stamp,

and make a project using flowers.

The contest starts today and

ends the last day of May.

You can enter up to three times.

Make sure you are a member of the blog,

 a resident of the U.S., and that you use one of the Crafter's Companion stamps.

The designers have made some wonderful

projects, pop over and take a look. 

This month I made a little gift box,

with the Fairyopolis

decoupage and a fenced in

garden of roses.

I started out making the box with the

Crafter's Companions Ultimate Tool.

and 2 sheets of

Purple Pearlescent Card Stock.

The first sheet I cut a 6 x 8 piece of

card stock, and scored it

at 2 inches and 6 inches.

Then turned and scored

2 inches and 4 inches.

Then cut as shown.

For the second piece of card stock

I cut it out at 4 x 6. And scored

the long side at 1 inch and at 5 inches. Turned and scored at 1 inch and 3 inches.

Then cut as shown.

Then just fold the end up as

shown, and use a  good liquid glue.

 Hold together with paper clips,

until dry.

The 2 little pieces at the bottom are

cut 1 x 2 and they go on the

inside of the lid, on the ends,

 to cover the  folded flaps.

When dry, take the clips off,

and put the lid on the box.

Then just embellish the lid.

I used a die from Die-namics,

called wood grain fence. Cut out 3 strips

and glue together end to end, then wrap

it around the box and glue.

Fill it with flowers and fairies,

add a sentiment and your done.

Then sentiment stamp I used is from the Beatrix Potter line of stamps.

I added the 2 little carrots, because
what's a garden without veggies,

:) LOL:)

I hope you liked the project today,

and give the little box a try.

The only thing that matters when

you're in your craft room, is having fun!!!

I am here to help, as are all the designers.

We all love comments.

And if you have a better way of

 doing something, please let me know.

Thank you for stopping by.

And Have a scrappy day.
