My junk box




This cute book wood box was made for my Gingersnap creations DT job- colors black- burgondy and cream
This box was in the closet for 2-3 years at least (1$ store junk)- so it is my Junk box - to put all these items left on the table before I do the selection and put them in the regular craft storages.
I used some velvet paper over the arcylic paint wash, embossed and sanded cardstock , black lace and beads, MM alphas, glittered chipboard butterfly, old reused tassel and hand made ribbon rose.
And now for other challenges too:
Texture for Delightful sketches
Embossing - the dots (distressed after) for Quixotic
Vintage for ABC
Sketch for CLP
Sparcles for Digi doodle shop best
Hand made flower for Fluorishes--
Pick 3 for Mission create- distressing, beads and a reused vintage tassel
Out of the box for Pile it on - it is a box and things are out of it literally
Distress it for Wild flower patch
Recipe for Inky impressions- flower, circles (abc), lace, embossing
Birthstone - ruby- not mine- but still birthstone for One stop craft
