Stampavie’s box challenge
Happy Monday!
It’s time again for another Stampavie challenge. Have you participated in any yet? You will be entered to win a great prize if you do! Check out the details here.
This time Jay Jay challenged us to create a little box. I needed a box for a necklace, so that was what I decided to make. My original plan was to create a little matchbox to place it in, but then I remembered that I had some little boxes tucked away that some jewelry was purchased in at one time or another. So I figured it would be better to re-use/re-cycle for this project.
I started with a scrap of Making Memories polka-dotted paper and adhered it to the lid. Then I finished off the edge with some ribbon. I found another wider ribbon that matched pretty well and attached it to the box bottom. Then I colored the Sarah Kay Spring Is Back image and cut it out with Nestabilities. I tucked a few Prima flowers underneath and glued it to the box lid. I finished it off with a few pink pearls and a button.
Here’s a close up of the sweet Sarah Kay image:
I hope you can play along with the challenge! Boxes are so much fun to create!
Have a great week!

Diane,
That box is just darling! I love it! TFS!
This is beautiful Diane!
Hi Diane! Love your pretty black and pink box! Such elegant colors! Your image is colored so beautifully too!
Oh, my! I gasped when I saw this! I’d keep this box forever — it’s absolutely darling! Love the pink and black and the polka dots and the adorable image in the oval. And the ribbon and button along the edge. Fabulous! I like to cover these little boxes, too. Had one out yesterday, in fact, but ran out of time before I decided what to do with it. This is just too cute!
Hello Diane,
This box is really stunning, love this stamp.
Hugs,
Monique.

This is so very sweet, Diane! I just love the pink scallops and pearls!
[…] I’d share the rest of a gift I made. This altered stationary set was made to give with my altered jewelry box I posted on Monday. I thought the dotted dp on the jewelry box went well with the gorgeous paper […]
