Hi Guys,
Back with yet another crafty post... I haven't been crafting much because Kolkata is freezing and keeping my fingers numb...
I recently made a poker themed 18th birthday explosion box on request and well... it was quite a challenge... I have no idea about poker so before going into it, I had to research quite a bit...I won't say am a huge fan of the game ( too many technicalities involved)...
An explosion box makes things easier.. enough space to write and post pics too... :-)
WARNING:- Picture heavy post (when are my posts not picture heavy :P)
Making a gift for a guy is extremely difficult... I have that uncontrollable urge to use flowers and bling and what not... All things feminine come to my mind them.. :P
Supplies used:- 300 gsm black CS locally purchased and scraps for everything inside
PPs:-DCWV, Amy Tangerine, Dream catcher, Echo Park
Stamps:- Fiskars and Penny Black
Ink=>Unity Noir and Memento Lilac Posies
Dies=> Spell binders floral ovals and MFT Chevron stripes
Embellishments=> chiipboards stickers were a RAK from Shalini Mittal,.Echo Pak Hello summer sticker sheet, Pie Lane hearts
Punche=> MS doily lace and Fiskars star punch
BIC Markers
Work Lipstick distress ink
seeing spots cuttlebug embossing folder
Fiskars trimmer and Scor-Pal
