A special sparkly birthday box!

Craftie Jellie

I’ve finally done the box for the card I posted! Just to remind you I’ve taken a photo of the card in the box base!

This is the card folded down in the box base I made.

A side view of the box- I used a circle punch at each end to make it look a little more professional!

I used a single digi of a lily and then coloured it and made it into the heart frame digitally.  I added sticker corners and added pearls to them.

TIP: I added flowers from WOC and painted the edges of the petals with pearlescent ink to give them glimmer rather than glitter!

I added embossing ink to the raised surface of the purple resin embellishment and then added pink Perfect pearls. I painted the outside with perlescent purple ink.

    Sorry to the Top Tip Tuesday team- I thought the purple pearlescenk ink on the flowers got them to match up. I hadn’t noticed how different they look in photos to real life where it looks like different purple tones! Do delete my entry!!
