Butterfly Tag by Linda


Hello Crafter's


We have made it to the weekend again, hope you all have a good one!!

Linda is back with a fab butterfly tag.






Sadly this is Linda's last post for Artful days, I am sure you will agree she has given some great inspiration on how to craft with your boxes



Using a piece of the A5 botanical papers from Craft Emotions I covered a tag. I distressed around the tag with DI walnut stain.



 I then stapled the butterfly burlap wired ribbon to the top of the tag.



To decorate the tag I used the following element: wooden butterfly was added to the edge of the ribbon.  I then used the pink spiders web, maple leave, 3 mulberry flowers and adhered one of the bird embellishments inside the flower.  To finish off I added 3 of the stick pins.



So a big thanks to Linda for all her hard work in designing with the box. 

The October box is out now available to but whilst stocks last, www.artfuldays.co.uk 

Thanks for visiting and I hope you can leave a nice comment.

Box Card by Linda

Hello Crafter's 

Linda is back with a box card using the Goodie from September's box. 






 I first created the box using pearlescent card and made a card wrap which folds over the box.


 I used this beautiful paper which is from Craft Emotions A5 Botanical papers.




I cut down a piece of the cream hammered card to fit inside the box. I distressed with DI bundle sage and used a couple of stencils from my stash and stencilled through them with DI forest moss. I then cut out the fence using one of my die and adhered to the outside of the box. I then decorated the background with the birds, butterfly and roses. The butterfly trail I used the gold micro beads.



To finish off the front of the box card I added the metal butterfly charm and 4 pearl flat back gems.
