Gift box finished

A few weeks back on my blog i had shown a box i was making for a brackelet that i had also made . I got everything ready to decorate the outside of the box then put everything to one side & started  a different project .
Yesterday i decided to get my little box decorated & i'm pleased with the result.
I had already glimmer misted 2 white flowers to match the paper , but then i was messing about folding paper to see if i could make some little rosette flowers . I have'nt got a die that will cut it out for me so i cut some strips of paper and started to fold my paper strips at  1/4 inch.  I was amazed at how easy these were to make and could kick myself for not making these rosette flowers before.
So here's my box finished .

Good Morning fellow crafters, another week for whats on your work desk wednesday,
My desk this week is a little more messy the normal.
Over on ukscrappers i've entered the weekly challenge again . This weeks challenge is to use the word home on your  lay out ,use a trio of things , use your favorite colour & add a list.
The paper i've used i have had for quite a few years & have no idea what make it is.
It really did'nt need much adding to this paper becuase i like the flower pattern so much & wanted a lot of it showing.
Other project on my desk that i'm working on is my loo roll mini album & a maze book . this time next week i might even have them both finished .

Hope everyone has a good woyww & happy blog hopping .

I've used the black card as the back ground , A birthday celebration, & the buttons and ric rac are my free items , I took them off of a birthday card that i had recieved so i'm claiming that as my free items.

Birthday card

A card for my friends birthday. The stamped image is a High hope stamp , I got this from a High hopes card swap that i was in. I coloured the image using my Derwent water colour sticks , which are a bit like crayons.
