I'm so happy you stopped in!
Our weather is starting to coooool down. I knew it would be coming~
I thought I would get a post or two ready ahead; before I get busy with some visiting family.
I like the matchbox style! and it's so easy to find various size templates on the internet.
The larger one is made from Prima papers; the smaller is a mix of papers. The cute image is from (click >) Pion Designs scrapbook paper from Sweden.
I added some beads and glitter, netting and a wide silk ribbon to the larger box. It is about 4 or 5 inches long. The "once upon a time" is a tag cut from a Sizzix die.
On the small box - is lace, cheesecloth, narrow gold ribbon (I love this ribbon! wish I could find more,) bits of linen, and 3 little flat-side beads for a crown. The bird and text were cut from Pion papers. This is near true-to-life matchbox size~ I added a teeny pull chain to the box bottom. OMW! I thought I'd never get it secured! (but, I did ; )
Thank you Ever-So-Much for stopping in!
Blessings to you!
