Belated Birthday Celebration...

Too late is tomorrow's life; live for today. -Proverb


Elizabeth at Elzybells spent the weekend celebrating the company's 5th Birthday...the DT was challenged to make a project that was Not a card...and that was a gift or gift packaging.

I have been saving a Prima Flowers box for ages for Just the Right project...I decided this was it! The original packaging is a soft "Victoria's Secret" pink, but I wanted a different feel...so I covered the whole thing. I used A Winter Song as the focal image...it was stamped on white, but I colored in the BG with a light Copic to make the snow show up more. The paper is "Oh Joy" by Cosmo Cricket.
Supplies:
Stamps: A Winter Song (Elzybells)
Paper: Oh Joy (Cosmo Cricket,) Stampers Select White
Ink: Graphite Black (Brilliance,) Markers (Copic)
Misc: Sticky Gems, Die Cut, Liquid Applique, Stickles, Border Punch (MS Crafts,) Lace Trim (Webster's Pages,) Polka Dot Ribbon
Thanks for stopping by! Check out what the other Elzybelles did for this challenge HERE
