Dimensional Flower Mingle

Dimensional Flower Mingle - Flower Box card


In the England stamper group we have just had a new mingle...... what I hear you ask? a mingle lol
this is where we make 3 items, either all the same or different and send them to 3 others in the group, you then receive 3 items from 3 others...... interested..... why not join the group contact me if your interested, this is just one of the many swaps we do... we are always looking for new members

The theme this time for the Mingle is Dimensional Flowers
you could use any type of flower, stamped image, decoupage or photo
I decided to go for a decoupage look with my stamped images there is 4 layers of stamped images in each box

close up of the Flower Box

The first layer at the very back are pink flowers, the next layer is acetate with oriental blossoms which where stamped in stazon and then glittered from behind.
The third layer is stamped Daisies, of which I did 2 and then the top layer is the mini daisies and the picket fence, paper flowers are also added to the top....

The actual box has been made from the My craft Studio CD - lastest out which gives the template which I adapted slightly as I didnt like the way it closed and added extra flaps to make it more solid... perhaps I am too finicky.

Any how I loved making these they where something different for me altho they did take me quite a long time to put together as I do like everything to be just right lol....
Enjoy everyone and have a great weekend...... ju x
