"New Things"

The Pollycraft challenge this week is "New Things"...they want to see what yummy new goodies you received from Santa :)  Since I became addicted to all things papercraft my family know to give me gift vouchers for my favourite craft shop...so I had a nice little shop when I went into town after Christmas and still have one more voucher to use...I'm saving it up to see what the new Kaiser release will be...love most of their stuff!!  Especially their wooden products. I really enjoy 3D projects and they have some great things to decorate.

Anyhow...on to my project.  This is a baby box I made for Phoebe, to go with her towel (see last post) and card.  Something to put the little keepsakes in...hospital bracelet, newspaper announcement, etc.  This isn't the box I wanted but when I went to get it they were sold out :(  I'm still happy with how this turned out but would have preferred the other one...it has little 'windows' around the sides and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with them...oh well...maybe someone will produce another baby for me to make it for lol!

Here it is:
And here's the front, top & side:

I've used one of the Lillybean Fairies from Pollycraft AGAIN :) I just LOVE these fairies...they are soooo nice to colour and are so sweet.  The DP is Tiny Tots digi paper from Scraporchard.  It's so hard to find traditional, soft pink or blue baby DP...must suggest that to Kaiser lol!! Clover has been coloured with Copics and cut out, then popped up on foam dots.  The decorations around the box sides are elements from the Kaiser Hey Birdie paper range, cut out and glued on.  I created the name on the top before printing the DP panel. I then used SU Crystal Effects over the letters and sprinkled with SU Dazzling Diamonds...it looks pretty IRL...just hard to photo.

Thanks for looking...have a wonderful day :)

Supplies:
CS:  X-Press blending card, SU Rose Red
DP:  Tiny Tots from Scraporchard, Kaiser Hey Birdie
Stamp:  Lillybean Fairy from Pollycraft
Colouring:  Copics, glitter pens
Other:  Kaiser rhinestones, Diamond Stickles, SU Crystal Effects, Perfect Pearls, foam dots, Pink craft paint

Pheobe's keepsake box is absolutely gorgeous Lynne! A great place to keep all those special baby treasures.
Clover is stunning & the digi paper is perfect. (Maybe Kaiser will come to the party with your wish! lol) The Hey Birdie elements work in beautifully too! :)
