TISSUE BOX IN YELLOW AND GOLD


Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends and visitors.

The wedding went well and the sun was shining, but it was a tad windy, and the wind was quite cold.

Today I have my entry into the Butterfly Challenge which is a Tissue Box I made a while ago, and haven't posted yet, and as it fits the bill for the current challenge.



I used some holographic decoupage I have had for a while.
The Butterfly Border was cut on my ScanNcut.
Used Gold Rainbow Mirri Card for behind my die cuts, and my corners.
Gold pearls also.

Thank you so much for your visit, and I will try, and catch up on everybody as soon as I can.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES DT......... THEME THINGS WITH WINGS

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
It' the start of another challenge over at
 MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES.
This time it's the B Teams turn and Judith is our host. 
She would like to see 
THINGS WITH WINGS

Just pop along to the blog to see my team mates fabulous creations.

So here is what I made for my part of the DT.
I'm afraid it's another Tissue Box.



I used silver linen pattern card.
The butterflies, and the die cut round the edge of the box are in a light brown Metalic Pearlised card by Dovecraft.
The pearls are actually brown not black as they look in the picture.
Chiffon flowers from the works.

GUEST DESIGNER FOR BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE.........#47 O FOR OVER THE EDGE

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
A few weeks ago I won the
BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE 
 and as part of the win, I was invited to be a Guest Designer.
The challenge runs for a fortnight, and I chose the letter O For Over The Edge.
So here is what I came up with for my Over The Edge it's another Tissue Box as I do love making these.



These are so easy to make, and to think I was afraid to make them at one time.
I measure my tissue box, and then do my scoring on my Hougie Board.
This one measures 5" high 4and a half inches to one side and 4" on the other.
So I cut 2 A4 pieces of card down to 5"  in height, and then I score half an inch for your gluing flap then 5" and then 9" and cut off what's left.
Glue together your flaps to make your box.
The lid will be 6 and half inches by 6 inches, and score at 1" around each side, and glue like the lid of a box.

Thank you so much for your visit and time.
I do hope you can join us for this current challenge.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

ANOTHER TISSUE BOX

Hi and welcome to all my craft loving friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and time.
I do appreciate your wonderful comments so much.

Before Christmas I made some more Tissue Boxes to take to my sisters, and this is one of them.




My sister just loved this as she loves butterflies just like me, and her bedroom is beige, and cream.
The card used is Beige, but it looks  like grey or green in the photo.

Thank you again for your visit.
I do hope you all have a wonderful day.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

TISSUE BOX

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
I would like to welcome my 2 newest followers, and thank you for joining me on my crafty journey.
I do hope to see you here as often as your time allows. 
Thank you also to all my loyal friends that regularly visit, and make such wonderful comments.
I very much appreciate them all.

Today I have a Tissue Box I made for the Allsorts Challenge as their challenge this week is anything but a card.
Now I haven't made one of these before so I am quite proud of myself as I have wanted to make one for ages, and chickened out a few times.



I have used some papers and card from my stash for this.
I made the roses on the front the way
Pamellia makes hers.
The leaves were made from a tip of John Lockwood's I heard about but
actually didn't see the demo.
Dies used below.

I do hope you all have a wonderful day what ever you are doing.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
