So let's get started with what I've made for this challenge.

I decided to make a box card because a friend wanted it for her parents' 25th Wedding Anniversary 

and all my ideas kind of exploded on this one box alone!! :P :P

PICTURE HEAVE POST!

Click on the images to see a larger version of the image..

To realize this bag, I used a paper " Echo Park ", "Be Mine".

On the upper edge, I stuck of the white lace. I realized the handles of the bag with the pale pink lace.

I used an image " Lelo Designs " which you can find HERE.

I colorized it in the following way:

- Ink "Distress Antique Linen". 

- Ink "Distress Tumbled Glass". 

- Ink "Distress Festive Berries". 

- Ink "Distress Walnut Stain". 

- White glitter " Distress ".

I inked the edge of my image with some ink "Distress Walnut Stain" then I stuck it with foam pieces 3-d on a die-cut realized with a dies " Spellbinders-Nestabilities - Circles ".

Then, for rest of the decoration, I stuck a big light pink rose (30 mm), a rose cremates (20 mm), a white rose " Kaisercraft ", a small cloth white flower and a blue "Lilidaft". They are covered with some touches of "Glitter Stickels Icicle".

Sooooo I hope this inspired you guys and you'll make something stunning for us to drop our jaws!!!

Go on, get your craft supplies out and start making something pretty for your loved ones!! :D
