Sunny Surrey

On the Papertake weekly Challenge is another marvellous tutorial from Claudia for a gift box. After working out how its made I managed to shrink the measurements to make this little ATC box for my Tilda & friends ATC challenges. I used double sided Scenic Route papers so the inside is pretty too.
As you can see there's plenty of room for some more ATC's
DCM little extra was for a fold on your card now I know I had some patterns for teabag folding but I couldn't find them, so I had to do a search and found this butterfly on Card Inspirations, his body is a Scrap-a-gogo stamp with a bit of bling. Not sure if its worked out as well as I wanted, I usually start with the idea like butterfly and rest builds up from there not sure that happened as well as it should.

What a great award sent to me by Smriti, now I have to choose five blogs.
