50th BIRTHDAY CARD AND BOX

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for all your really great comments on my tissue box.
I am always so pleased you like what I create.

Today I have another 50th Birthday card and box I made for my daughter in law.
Her Birthday was on the 30th of December hence the colours and style.
She loves her boots so I thought I would go with this theme.




This is a 8"x8" size card and box I made to fit it.
I used a embossing folder, and then rubbed over gold wax to highlight the embossing.
The boots I cut out of a template I have had for many years now on to brown snake skin paper that I glued to the top of some snippets card so I can join the girls at the snippets playground with this as I have been AWOL for a few weeks.
I wonder what antics they have been up to in my absence.
Trimmings on the box were cut out on my ScanNcut.

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

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.
