WOYWW - BOXES GALORE

as my mojo seems to have gone on it's summer break not a lot has been happening here.  My desk is however loaded this week with matchbox boxes.  These are some that have been made by the ladies in the craft group I run and are waiting to be photographed.  They make quite a stunning group.


All I have been up to is to print off a lot of digi stamps and stamp up some of my favourites and colour them in with my promarkers.  I'm slowly working my way through them all then cutting them out and glittering as needed.  At the end I will have a large box full of images ready to use when I want to make a quick card.

I hope that looking at some of your work will inspire my mojo again and I can get back to crafting.

Oh just forgot, I havent been entirely idle - big thank you to Jo (Twiglet) for the African Flower pattern, I have made 27 of them and my blanket is beginning to take shape.  Perfect to crochet while watching the tennis.

Have a good week ladies.

Those are the biggest matchbox boxes I have ever seen. They are nicely decorated though. And I love those colorful containers in the background.

the matchboxes look great, I love being part of a crating group. We make stuff together and its all the same but everybody's is different, it never fails to amaze me how many different interpretations there are.

Hi Bee = I am so glad you are hooked on the African flowers (hooked - lol!!) We are too and Wipso has made some specially for me to make brooches with. She is cleverer than me and has been able to vary the pattern to make tiny flowers!! I love your boxes - so pretty.

Hi,

Within a couple of hours I'll be posting a link to your website. You weren't one of the winners of my OWOH entry, but I did commit to making 100 Bottles of Hope on behalf of the first 100 entrants. You're bottle will be shown on my blog shortly.

Cheers,

Sandy
