NAUTICAL BOX CARD..

 Hello everyone,

Gosh, Sunday here already and I'm off to the Farmers market with my family then to Spotlight top spend my Christmas voucher......on craft of course, someone said, are you getting new  tea towels, ha ha ha, so silly...

Today I'm sharing another nautical project but more crisp and clear colours...


These paper are just lovely for anything really. but for me, they yell Nautical.
I photocopied them many times to make enough for my project. 


I made and covered the box first, inside and outside..then
added the card onto to the bottom and wrapped it around and nestle the box into the spine..


Loads of stuff from my nautical box and Ephemera too..


I had to add a tie as the box lid just would not sit perfectly flat..


Layers of Ephemera, but not too bulky..


and I LOVE my metal seahorse charm..


Inside the box lid, I made a pocket, decorated it, and added some tags
and charms..


The box front..


The card front..


inside the card..tag in..


inside the card...tag out.




Side by side..

and there you go..done..

Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you tomorrow..

Luv CHRISSYxx

What??? No new tea towels? You spent the voucher on Craft stuff?? What a surprise!!!! :D Seriously who would choose tea towels if they could have lovely new craft stash!
Your nautical box and card set is fabulous, your attention to detail is second to none and there are so many lovely elements to admire in this wonderful project.

Oh wow, how cool is that, I love the papers, they are perfect for nautical and I like the bottles on the front with that great image and the dripping candles on the card are a neat touch to the card. The ship tags on the inside are very cool too, great job on this project!
