Summer of Color Week 3

Hey Friends,

Busy busy busy this weekend crafting for my exchange partner for Scrapbook Friends and More Crafts, my favorite FB crafting group, but I did get a little matchbox made for Kristin's Summer of Color party :) This week the color prompt was gray, lavender and a splash or pop of plum - love this color palette! This little box did not turn out quite the way I envisioned, but I still like it., The paper I covered the box with is from Heartfelt Creations. I dotted the centers of the little lavender flowers with plum marker, wrapped with lavender ribbon and made the little stick pin to stick in. The "drawer pull" to open the box is a plum colored bead. Not a lot of work on this one, but my creative juices are not flowing as quickly as I'd like at the moment.

I hope everyone has a blessed weekend and upcoming week!

Much love,
Becky

    This is such a pretty little box, nice work. It's so good to see something different and good to transform a matchbox into something beautiful.
