The swap I mentioned on my previous post is to make a card to accompany a handmade bag or box which must contains at least 6 handmade embellishments, of which 3 must have lace on.!!!!!
Wow, I thought of that one, !!!!!!
Well I have shown you some of the lace flowers I made to go in the bag.
These are some matchboxes I have made, two of which will go in the bag and the others I shall use to go in with raffle prizes at my craft club.




I added three concertina butterflies in this one, so pretty with my pearl gems.

The flowers on the top are made with Cheery Lynn Roses die.




This one has a Foamiran flowers I made at my craft club on top.
Filled this one with my tiny butterflies.

I love these metal corners I bought from Ebay.
Concertina flower I received in a swap!!

Filled this one with different embellishments from my stash.

I have not decided yet which one I am using for the swap.
There is a couple more to show you another day.
Thanks for visiting.
I found a You Tube video that would help
HERE
with making the box.
I used one that I had received Stick Pin blanks in and unfolded it.
