Day 16 of the Countdown to Christmas! Here is the box I made:
Here's a peek at the sweet little charm she tucked inside!
I love this girly color combination for Christmas. I made a matching gift inside:
I received this clever creation from Michelle Rondeau. She turned her matchbox into a little Christmas book!

I made another Ann-Denise inspired paper ornament. She taught a similar class a couple weeks ago, but I wasn't able to attend, so I reinterpreted her project. It was difficult to photograph because I don't have a good place to take hanging photos.
After assembling the sheet music cones, I added the vintage ballerina image and started layering on the embellishments - dyed and crinkled seam binding, vintage pearls, mercury glass beads, buttons, and tinsel. I even dangled a little bell from the bottom.
I added a vintage lace hanger so she can adorn our Christmas tree.

Erica, I received your little box. It is so cute. Thank you I love it.
You have such a lovely blog!

Michelle *Ü*
love it all. every last detail!
Erica - I have been loving all the ones that you have made and gotten. Great work!!!
I can not believe how many awesome match boxes you have! They are really great! Thanks for sharing, I am going to have to give them a go I think. Beautiful ornament as well, so pretty.
BTW, the stencil was from an art supply store, in the airbrush section, I like that they are plastic and really thin, it makes the paint layer very manageable.
Those pink colors are very cute, you also got back a very creative and pretty box :)
Loving that ornament you made, it is gorgeous! =D
I love today's matchboxes and your ornaments are gorgeous!
those are all so sweet !
