We had craft club at work on Friday and this was one of the projects I made. It's great to squeeze a bit of crafting fun into a working day. Plus you get to catch up with dear friends!This box is the pillow box die cut on the Big Shot in Sahara Sand with a strip of Blueberry Crisp DSP around it. The stitching was drawn with a Soft Suede marker. As you probably recognise now, the butterfly is from Strength & Hope; this time I coloured it with a Crumb Cake marker all over and then dabbed Soft Suede in patches to give a mottled effect. Am still mad about those little self-adhesive pearls so a row of them was added to give the effect of the butterfly's body. Cute!!!
Here is Munchkin during a quiet moment at the weekend. Don't you just love the top that her Grandparents bought her?
This was just a bit of fun I had to try and cheer up the little one. Normally she eats like a horse, especially when it comes to fruit. Sadly, due to her under-the-weather state she's not been eating as well so I thought some fun needed to be injected. This is what I came up with! Suddenly fruit became very appealing!!
Lovely box, and such cool fruit! I'd probably eat more if mine looked that friendly :)

ReplyDeleteLovely box, what a lovely mummy you are, I might try that for my boy's packlunch box! The apples are coming home uneaten!
ReplyDeleteYou've decorated the pillow box beautifully and I love what you did to the fruit! Must show my son who will go bananas! (Did you see what I did there?!!) Vx
ReplyDeleteHi there! Thank you so much for the sweet comment about the beehive card you left on my blog. We have grandchildren coming here a week from now and I know they don't eat much fruit - am now going to search for the big goggly eyes tucked away in my stash - brilliant idea! Might not tell my OH and see if he notices :) Some fab creations on your blog...you now have a new follower! Di xx
