Frosted designs: Angelic giftbox

 Hello everybody, 

With the spirit of the holidays in my mind, i created this altered matchbox. 
I am using this as a gift box for under the tree for christmas.
I really love shabby chic, its always very romantic and angelic. 

This is the front of the box:

And this is the back:



I used paper of the Delight 6 x 6 paper pad of prima marketing. 
Below are some close ups of all the tinny details that i have put on this box. 


The only thing that i need to figure out is what gift to put in the box? 
Any ideas?
I believe the box is a gift on it's own!


It's great to create your own gifts, packing and cards for the holidays, it gives  the extra personal touch.
Thank you all for stopping by and have a great day!

Scrapafrica: Snowflakes, Glitter and masking!

Good morning all, 

For the next two weeks we have the following challenge at Scrap africa:

Snowflakes, Glitter and Masking!

This is my take on the challenge:



Lots of layers in this layout. I used a winter picture of my friend roan from last year. 
As in Greece, there is not much snow where i live!


So how did i use all the challenge items:

Snowflakes: on the design paper, i used a snowflake diecut and added them all around the canvas and i ussed chipboard snowflakes.

Glitter: i used silver glitter on every part of the layout. 

Masking: i used a mask of on the design paper and canvas paper and after i sprayed blue/turquoise spray ink.


It was great to make this layout because i love these winter blue colors. 


thank you all for stopping by and dont forget to hop over to Scrap africa for some inspiration and to add your layout or project!!!

Frosted designs

Hello everybody, it's Channa here!!

Today it's my day to show you what i created with some  beautiful products of the Frosted designs store. 

First 5 random facts about me:
1. I love wearing layers of clothes and boots, that's why i love the winter. 
2. Me and plants are no friends. so no green hands.
3. Sky-diving and bunjee jumping are still on my to do list.
4. I fear cockroaches but i am always the one catching them.
5.Ironing is not my favorite household job.

So here is my layout:


I used a picture of my husband when he was just a little boy, so cute. 
Paper used is from Fabscraps i love this collection. 



As a background i used a mask and dylusion sprays and added 
some embossing powder to create a little bit of texture.
I used the same powder on the clouds.

Flowers used are from prima marketing.


I want to thank you for stopping by today, 
Have a good one!
