Last month when we were away I bought a little box for small notes with a drawer underneath. It was 100% OK when I got it but by the time I got it back to the caravan there was a deep cut in the top. Well I couldn't leave it like that so I decided to make a new top for it.
The image I have used is by Ching-Chou Kuik and is called "Sweet Pal". I coloured my image in with my Promarkers. I think I must use purple shades too much as I need to go and source some more purple Promarkers as I cannot be without them.
The backing papers I have used are from The Works. I got a beautiful paper pad at the same time as this note box and it has lovely purple/pink/blue shades. I was loathe to cut into it but I did. I am hoping when they are next back open after the lockdown in the UK I can go and get another one. I used a piece of plain purple pad from The Works and cut out a Marianne Designs frame. I've had this for a long time but I could never get it to cut out easily with my manual die-cutting machines but as soon as I used my Gemini machine it cut like a breeze.
I have finished off the top with some Sue Wilson die-cut greenery, punched flowers and Nuvo pearl drops.

How pretty!! And what a great way to "fix" the cut in the top of the box! I'm sure it is even prettier this way, anyway! Love all your punches flowers. Thanks for playing with LTSCB and Di's Digi Designs.
