Script Stamp, dream stamp or another sentiment you would like to use, Staz on ink in black

Aleenes Liquid Fusion

Misc supplies- paint brushed, stencil brush, sanding block and tack cloth, sewing machine and thread, scissors

Die cut flowers from sticky backed canvas. Paint the large and small flower Neopaque White. Paint the medium flowers Lumiere Crimson.

Use the inkpad and stamp to stamp across the surface of the white flowers.

L:ayer the flowers together. For the leaves, use the winged shapes on the dies cut wings from the canvas which will become leaves for the flowers. Paint the leaves Metallic Olive Green.

Sewn the small fringed flowers in a free form pattern on the edges of the die. Remove paper backing from each of the pieces and layer together as shown.

Create the polka dotted pattern by painting one side of the fabric Crimson. When dry, use the end of a small paintbrush dipped in Neopaque white to make dots. You will need an approximate 6" square to cover buttons.

Use the button cover kit in the following manner to cover four buttons.

Refer to the instructions on the back of the package to cover buttons. Cut am approx 2" circle from the polka dotted fabric for each button.

Sand the wood box and wipe clean with a tack cloth. Base coat Lumiere Metallic Gold, inside and out. Use the stencil, stencil brush and Neopaque Black paint to stencil on birds and leaves, branches. 

Glue the buttons to the center of each flower embellishment with the tacky glue. Let box side on appropriate sides when paint is drying and glue from button sets.

This is what the top of the box looks like.

 Here is the completed box.

I added a teardrop wing, painted white and stamped with the script stamp, some self adhesive embellishment rows and a stamped sentiment directly to the box.

These adorable boxes were meant to house A2 sized cards and envelopes but I'm going to put it in my bathroom to hold various items usually just randomly laying around the sink.

I would love to comment, however, I'm unsure if the link to Jacquard's facebook page is the right way to the blog? Is it? Do I comment on the post to this project?
I'm new at this blog world, so I want to be sure I'm not leaving stuff where it doesn't belong. :)
Thanks.
