A girly Christmas .............

 
There is a new challenge over at Lili's Little Fairies 'A Girly Christmas' and I hope you will all find time to take a look at the fabulous inspiration by the design team and enter your own project. 
 
I've made this  little easel card with a drawer.  The image is a Mini Masterpiece and the papers are all from the LOTV Classic Christmas pad.  The edges of all the pieces of paper and the box were distressed with tea dye ink before assembling it
 
 
This is what I added
WOC small gardenia, two white sweetheart blossoms, a white hip rosebud and a white lily
Kort & Godt white chrysanthemum and berries from a cream/ivory beaded berry bunch
Medium red berries
Berisford Red No 15 double sided satin ribbon
I glued a piece of white flat lace around the box to finish off and used plenty of Stardust Stickles and some 5mm clear crystals.  The feet on the box are made with 11mm ivory pearl flat backs stuck on with glossy accents.
Lastly I made a little hole in the drawer front with sharp scissors and put in a pearl brad from my stash to use as a handle 
 
See you soon, Mary G x
