ANNIVERSARY CARD AND BOX

Hi and another good morning to all my talented followers and
visitors.
Well it's Monday morning again and the start of another week.
I hope you all had a really fabulous weekend, and the weather
was kind to you.
Did you manage to slot some crafting into your weekend.
I have 3 lots of Baby Book cards and boxes to make for my
sister as 4 of her granddaughters are expecting.
THANK YOU for all your lovely comments.
I so appreciate every one.
So to my post for today, I was asked by a neighbour to make 
this for a friend of hers.

Now the inside.


And lastly the box.


The card and box were made from ivory pearlised card
Matted with mrri card and then some lovely pearlised paper.
I made the lovely triangle shape out of the Spellbinders Parisian
Die.
This was not my idea, it was on a tutorial on the Creative 
Harmony blog. Thank you Lindyloo for showing me this
because it is so effective.
To the card I added some flowers, a bow, lacy circles, Parisian
Accents, and Parisian Corners.
I hope you like this creation. I just love the ivory and peach.
Thank you again for taking the time to visit my blog.
Have a wonderful crafty Monday everyone.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY. 
I would like to enter this in the following challenges.

Morning Jenny, another lovely card today, agree, ivory and peach is a super colour combo and you have made beautiful use of the dies in your layout. We had so much to fit in this weekend that the only crafting I did was one commission and a token Christmas card..roll on Wednesday and craft day!
