Guns and Roses Flower Box & a Chance to Win a Free Tutorial!! Metal and Roses Get it?

Want to win this Pretty Flower Tutorial and have it sent right to your inbox? Just leave a comment and I will let random.org select a winner Thursday morning. Can’t wait? You can purchase it on my right sidebar.

So what do you think should go into this Luxurious little box I made this morning? I think Jewelry but what do you think? It measures 3 1/4 square and just the right size to house a little necklace or bracelet. I think I’m going to make some of these for a craft fair I’ll be doing soon. Metal Box 003



Can you tell I’ve used some sanded metal on here. I love this stuff…so easy to work with and so impressive. You can purchase the metal sheets from Monica Weaver over at Add a Little Dazzle. Can you believe I used scraps from other projects to make this? My point…..don’t throw these scraps away, they are capable of creating wonderful things!!!!

I decided to add the Houndstooth Embossing Folder to add some richness to this box. Wasn’t sure how I liked the more masculine texture with the delicate flower but I do. By the way I got the template from my friend Sandi MacIver…well she actually gave me a beautiful box at convention and it was just the right size so I used the inside of the box for this template. Thanks Sandi!
