Just Add Ink #62...

This week Just Add Ink  have gone 3D, We were challenged to make a "Bag or Box", It's such a fun challenge and the possibilities are endless, you can hit the link  to see all the goodies the DT girls have come up with, they have been super busy creating some stunning sample inspiration to get you reaching for your c/stock & DSP.

I loved making this one, it seems lately that whenever l have a vintage theme in mind, l reach for Basic Black, Very Vanilla & crumbcake Colour Combo.
Once again l went with one of Joanne Leddy's Beautiful flowers, you can find her link in Febs Archives.
Can you guess what l used as the base for this box?......SU, Mini Milk Carton Die x2, pretty cute idea.
I had originally seen a variation here at stampartpapel, Martha has some great creations using this die, check out her blog if you get the chance...you wont be disappointed, she is one very talented lady!

So l hope you get a chance to play along with this weeks challenge and l look forward to seeing the results.

Supplies:
All a flutter-Artistic etchings.
Basic black-Very vanilla-Ink & C/stock
Love letter DSP.
Mini Milk Carton Die.
Decorative label punch-Eyelet border punch.
Twine-Champagne Shimmer Mist.
XL flower punch-5 petal flower & Boho flower punch.
Black brad.

Have a lovely weekend...thanks for dropping by.

    This little vintage box is so sweet. I especially love the tag with the butterfly popped on top.

    Totally gorgeous Nikki. I love your colour combo, always elegant. Would never have picked your box base as the milk carton die - soooo clever.

    That flower is divine. I'm off to your Feb link :o)
