Despite working late nights this week, having a birthday party to arrange, a competition to enter, and ATC challenge starting today, Moo Mania tomorrow, and the usual household things to get done, I have managed to make another faux silver box. This is for the very lovely Nigel May, one of the presenters at Create and Craft TV. I do hope he likes it.
It uses the wonderful Oriental Birds embossing folder by Sheena Douglass along with the brilliant matt black card by Crafter's Companion and Pebeo silver gilding wax. You could try Crafter's Companion for that too. I also needed to use a few other bits, like the dotty border and the pattern trim on the box as the folder was just that little bit too narrow to cover the top of the box. Don't tell Sheena, but this box for Nigel is a bit bigger than hers! What I need are the A4 embossing folders that Sheena designed.................*Gets Christmas list out and adds several items to it*
Right, can't sit around typing, well actually I could but I do then run the risk of falling asleep on the keyboard........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Just like that!!!!!
Busy days ahead, hope you have a pleasant 'rest of the week'!

Hope you've managed to get your head down, Kim!!!
ReplyDeleteYour boxes are just amazing, no wonder Nigel had his eye on them. I love the beading on this one. You'll be taking orders now!!!
Hope your busy week goes smoothly.
