This is the 1st box that I made using the template that Terry had sent me. The paper is very thin so I decided to sandwich a piece of jiffy bag in between and then stitch the bag together using blue and red braid and small seed beads in pink and green. Finally I adorned with layered flowers and buttons to make the closure. The bag of beads fitted snugly inside perfect for being sent in the post.
I am entering this into the following challenges.
For fun Challenges. Are asking for bright summer colours.
Crafty Creations. They are asking for summer lovin. (summery, beachy,or warm weather friendly). These colours make me think of summer.
Have a good weekend everyone. We are off to see the 'God Parents' and spend some time in their breeze hut.

Yep, this is another beautiful piece. You put so much work into your items and it really shines through. xxx
Another fab project! Bet your swap partner loved it - I know I would have! (Great idea using the jiffy bag to strengthen your bag - may have to nick that idea!)
Another wonderful project - such a sweet little bag full of goodness - and a great idea to use a jiffy bag - I've got dozens!!
