Good Morning my lovely friends and followers. Its a beautiful day again here in the West of Scotland, long may it continue. I have been busy working on a few projects lately and thought you might like to see some of them. The one I am showing you to-day is my take on the card /gift box, that can be used for sweets, but I chose to put tea lights in mine. I used a cream linen card that was scored and distressed, added some free magazine papers to form my background. The picture is one I have had for ages and was from one of the vintage picture blogs. I distressed it to make it look very old and gave it a few cracks here and there. The roses are from Wild Orchid who do the most beautiful flowers. The beautiful pins were a gift from blogging friend Sassy who makes them herself. Lace and pearls are from my stash. The sentiment is from my favourite Inkylicious stamp set. I'm sure some of you have done this before and can maybe help more with the instructions, as I forget where I got it from originally, not like me at all as I do try and log where I find things. Hope you all have a lovely day. Hugs Rita xxx
