It's time for our inspiration challenge at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog. Our fabulous Cabio is hostess this month and the photo below is for your inspiration. I hope you play along with us for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the Magnolia-licious online store. Don't forget to check out the wonderful creations by my talented DT buddies.
I created another gift box which is a Valentine's Day gift for my daughter's teacher who ROCKS! I just loooove the curly hair on Tilda Sending Love Letters, which is available in Diana's Magnolia-licious online store as a mini. I got the idea for the acetate gift box on the uber-talented Claudia's blog, Pretty Pressings ( November 2, 2010 post). My box is filled with lots of yummy Hershey's Kisses. Papers, flowers, heart brad, rhinestones and ribbon are from my stash and I've promised myself to use what I have on hand before buying new. We'll see how strong I am to resist the temptation of buying new stuff ~ lol. I wanted to use my MS heart punch to edge the box but it malfunctioned and so I used another MS punch and added pink rhinestones to pretty up the edge. Tilda is coloured with Copics.
I'm entering my gift box into the following challenges:
- Cupcake Craft Challenges ~ All You Need is Love
- Let's Ink It Up ~ Anything Goes
- Paper Pretties Monday Challenge ~ Valentine's Day
- Simply Magnolia ~ Anything But a Card
Thanks for visiting and have a great day.
Hugs,
Maria
