...in a pretty box.
Sometimes it can be quite difficult to present a gift in a pleasing way without spending a fortune on boxes, bags and wrapping - but that doesn't have to be the case.
I wanted a pretty box to wrap a necklace in and this is what I came up with...
...the box was created using just a single sheet of A4 Centura Pearl CS (the white with a hint of gold) and then I decorated it using one of Ignacio's images from the "Vintage Xmas Greetings Cards (ladies)" collection.
I trimmed the image to fit onto a pale blue matt...
...that had been punched along the lower edge with a MS border punch.
The image was beautiful as it was, colour-wise, so all I did was add...
...some crystal stickles to the feather on the hat and the neckline of the dress.
The embellished corner consists of...
...3 small off-white roses, a couple of die-cut poinsettias and a music print heart (from the Craftwork cards 'Christmas Post' collection) and pearls.
You can find this collection of wonderful images as well as many others over at the
Nicecrane Design site. If you are interested in this particular set, you can find it
