A Flamboyance of Flamingos

Hello everyone!
I wanted to share this pretty box card that I made.
The cut file is from Mary's Wildflower Saloon kit over at SVGCuts.com

as you probably know, I purchase a lot of graphic files from thehungryjpeg.com
I printed the flamingos, cut them out and arranged them in the box.
I added a few die cuts (leaves and bamboo) to give it a little more color.

Yeah, I'm keeping this one. I LOVE flamingos and it fits perfectly with the decor of my house!
Thanks for taking a look, see you soon.

Quilted Gift Box

Hello my friends,
Today I'm sharing the quilted gift box from the Wildflower Saloon SVG kit.
I cut out the pieces to this project at 50% scale. I had an idea in mind, so I wanted to create the box in a smaller size so I could play around with it.

The quilted box top was cut out using white cardstock. I sized a flamingo to be in proportion with the finished section. After it was glued together, I came back in and started inking a beachy landscape. I used distress inks for that.
This box is a great size for little odds 'n ends. I will be using it to store/hide things in my art room.
Thanks for looking. See you soon.
