The box can stand by itself - I used Decovil (it is something like Peltex)
with one sticky side - and appliqued all sorts of things out of my stash - you can see inchies
and leaves - and I stamped again with an Indian woodden stamp
I started with a shape like that - all sides are the same measures - 15 cm
I did not like the shape at first (the photo is taken in the evening sun) -
it seemed to be too high so I undertook a surgery
and cut 2 cm off the rim
The proportions are more pleasing now
There is a pocket on one side for scissors or pencils
----
We had stormy weather while I was taking the pictures
The sun disappeared
And if you want to know where I got the idea from.....

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Anneliese! You are right making it smaler.
ReplyDeleteA lovely box with all the appliques and stamps. It does look better after you cut it shorter.
ReplyDeleteAnneliese, it is great that you could use some of your inchies in such a creative way! The box is fabulous and will probably be very handy. I love the "Janeville' site too and adore looking at Jane's work, it is very inspirational.
