Wanted to share an altered box.
Top view:
Side view of the box:
This is the old cartoon box which i have upcycled.
For the base, i embossed the white CS with darice embossing folder and distressed completely with spun sugar. Scalloped oval dies of 2 different sizes are taken and distressed it with victorain velvet, Sentiment is then stamped on the smaller die and placed at centre around which the added big blooms and smaller flowers, few fancy flourish diecuts and olive leaves diecuts. The scalloped oval is accented with few white pearls. MS butterflies are added in purple, white colors as embellishment with few pink pearls. Around the edges and to make it seamless, added baby pink washi tape and covered the flap wholly to insert inside the box.
Have decorated the sides of box with base white CS and on it decorated border stickers are added in purple and pink around the sides. Now ready to be filled with Candies.
Do leave your comments as this is my first try at upcycling ideas :)
