Notecard Gift Box

Gift box ...Isn't that awesome idea to gift for any occasion..After purchasing my MS scoreboard, my search for these gift boxes tutorials are never ending ones...Picked up a tutorial which i bookmarked earlier and tried my first notecard gift box.

Wanted it to be simple and sweet..

More like NOEL theme colors...its comes out that way which is purely unintentional...Love it yet!

Explosion box and Miniature garden

Easy to guess from title...Yess.... i wish to quill a miniature garden in an explosion box. As the box is my first time try, i wanted to made it as simple one....

Few closer views

Made trellis with my MS layered arches punch. Climbers are made with floral wire which are covered with green floral tape. Leaves and flowers are from punches. Can you see that tiny one lying on grass...Oh yay...Quilled mushroom on several grass layers which are finely fringed ones from green cardstock. For fringing, i used Fiskars spring scissors, its really like a breeze if you are doing lots of fringing. The handle is made in such a way to ease the action and the spring used there gives such a comfort while fringing.

Butterflies are punched out. Decorated the lid with the tile punch and other punched out bits.

Hope you all like..

Flower centres are pink pearls, made 2 punched flowers, 2 open loop flowers and other quilled flowers.To give a popped up look, given foam adhesive backing to flowers and leaves are stuck only at midrib.
