"Baby" & "Mini in a box" - Green Tara


"Baby"

Hello Green Tara followers!!xx

Today I am sharing two projects with you I started at a Greek crop day!!
I had a mini trolley bag with me and of course my Green Tara goodies!xx

I started by misting the white cardstock with red Dylusions and water! After that I used a clock mask with walnut stain distress ink, a stencil with some texture paste and random stamping!

Below I have used in my small cluster the red cobweb mesh as the base and then the primula flower, a small rose and the diamante trim!


In the main cluster I have used the white wild rosediamante trimsmall rose, a red satin rosette, the gorgeous red polka dot ribbon, flower lace and skeleton leaves!!

And look at that amazing stars on wire!! I think they add so much interest to the whole page!!!

"Mini album in a match box"

Now, that was a very interesting project!!

I don't do OTP projects often because of the lack of time so this crop was a perfect chance!!
I have "dressed" the box up with craft paper & I distressed it with gesso, distress inks and pink stickles!
It opens up pulling the white pearl knob!

My decoration consists of a white primulablack satin rosette, pink cherry blossom & rosediamante trimlace and skeleton leaves!



So, inside the box there is a cute mini album!!
To embellish the cover I have used rosesdiamante trim self adhesive white trim!
To bind it I used black paper string!

The inner decoration is very simple and flat because I could not use anything bulky.
So here I have used some mini tassel ribbon. On the mini tag I have used the mini loop trim!

Here is the mini loop trim on the tag again, diamante trim in the center of a flower shaped trim!!


And my two favorite ribbons: Cobweb Mesh in black and
 Bud & Bow ribbon in pink!!!
