Thoughtful Expressions Inspiration | Decorative Boxes with Elena

Hello dear readers, Elena Salo is here. I'm sure, all of you have already seen beautiful collection by Marisa Job for Spellbinders  - Thoughtful Expressions. I love every single die from this release and want to show you my first project with some of the dies. I really liked delicate lace frames and so I decorated boxes to share with you today. Here they are:

I used a plain white box as the base for my project. I applied grey ink and added some shading to the box.  You can make your own boxes using Spellbinders dies (there are plenty different designs to chose from) or use pre-made ones.

Instructions:

  • Die cut the largest Frame using Scalloped Rectangle die, cut lace into a pieces.
