Good Monday morning. I love spring flower arrangements and the new My Favorite Things Flower Box 2 and Trapezoid Treat Box gave me the perfect opportunity to create one. I got both of these dies from Ellen’s this week and really wanted to make something special with them. I started out to make a full sized treat /flower box but instead created my arrangement on a card front.
I started by cutting the box front once and the treat box twice. I assembled the treat box and then attached the flower box to the front. After I decided I was going to use the flower box on a card front I used my snips to cut off almost all of the treat box leaving about 1/4” all the way around. I attached three layers of mounting tape on the inside of the box and attached it to the card base. See the side view of the flower box below.
I cut several colors of the layered roses in the two smallest sizes and formed with my stylus and mat. I punched several mini petunias to create a smaller third layer in the roses as well as creating several smaller flowers. I attached several pieces of the lorelai leaf and the bella bouquet to the card base with glossy accents and then attached the larger flowers. I added several sections of the leafy branch 2 cut down into smaller sections and attached in and around the larger flowers. I by adding several smaller flowers to fill in the arrangement.
I added a small multi loop bow to the front of the box to add one more element of color.
Have a great Monday and thanks for stopping by.
