... to make a gift box/voucher to invite a 90-year-old to a flower show for her birthday. I very rarely have commissions and so loved this challenge. Started off by stamping, distressing and colouring some white paper to make the bespoke box.
The flower pot and trowel/fork stamps are from a Messy Rabbit set I hardly ever use. The main image is from DigiStamp Boutique.
The design on the box lid follows this weeks Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 sketch.
And for the voucher... I was thinking of something which could be kept- maybe used as a decorative door hanging? Again I used similar/the same stamps so that it all tied together as a project:
And what else but a little card to top things off?
This follows the current Stamplorations sketch. I was thinking that perhaps some of the details of the gift could be written in the card as the space on the tag is perhaps a little small. Not sure how good the recipient's eye sight is. I always get told off for writing too small...
I will also enter this into this weeks Passion for Promarkers (all creatures great and small) and Little Miss Muffet (distressing) challenges.
