I recently had the pleasure of participating in another matchbox swap---this time, with my Marie Antoinette group!
We were charged with creating a French-inspired box for our partner, and when I found this lovely Marie image in a beautiful aqua gown, I just had to include her!
She was printed on cotton fabric and stitched to the cover with a few aqua flowers and some sparkly crystals. I just love the texture the netting gives to the base of the box!
I just love the light and dark shading on the French book pages I've used on this box! I loved it so much that I've left some areas without print just so there would be more of that color :-)
Here's the AMAZING package my partner, Jody, sent to me! If you've never been to Jody's blog, now's the time. She has an awesome giveaway this month!
Love this wrapping paper!!!
A peek inside...
My GORGEOUS box!
Love the handle...
and wrapping!
This mini sewing machine is my FAVORITE!!! It's maybe 2 inches across and has lovely gold embossing. ***SIGH***
I must say that I feel positively spoiled!!! All the beautiful trinkets and papers and trims and charms! Thanks so much, Jody!!!
Xoxo,
