LESSOlogy Challenge

Happy Tuesday I have a fun and different project to share with you today!!



This week Market Street Stamps is sponsoring Lessology. I was so excited to check out this challenge blog and see what it's all about. It's defiantly a challenge that makes you think outside the box and I know I need to do that a little more which is why I really wanted to give it a go and see what I came up with.



This is the fabulous prize you can win if you take part in the challenge!!!











Ok so for my project I decided to decorate a box that carried embellishments from Making Memories . I really have been wanting to do something with it so this was perfect. The box started off with just a clear top and that's really what i wanted to dress up.



I picked out some pattern paper cut it to the size of the opening. Then the fun part I picked out a Market Street Background stamp this one is Punched Tin stamped on my pattern paper and then adhered it to the opening of the box really easy. Next step making my own flowered embellishment by cutting a few different sized scalloped circles with my spellbinder dies and layering them up.



As you can see in the first picture I stamped on each layer of my flower with the Bit Of Burlap background stamp. I also made the leaves out of burlap



and just added a few buttons here and there.



I hope you enjoyed my fun little project you can check out all the challenge details over at Lessology and more fabulous ideas from their DT!!!!

    You've certainly made the box a lot prettier with the addition of the stamped patterned paper and the lovely bloom Stephanie! :)
