Shabby Vintage Chic Christmas Roses Pillow Box Ornament

Hello Friends!!
I Hope you are having a fabulous day!!
I had a little time to put together my new Shabby Vintage Chic Christmas Roses Pillow Box Ornament.  Funny how quick you can put them together once you get one done :0)
Pin It!
I started out using my new Collage sheets



The Front. 
 Which I was inspired to do Flourishes of Glitter instead of polka dots once I visited the Simon Monday Challenge.  Which is to add flourishes!!
I used #162 Just Peachy,  Glitter on the outer petals of the roses and pink circle,  #142 Coral Reef Glitter on the inner portions of the roses,  #295 Ensalada Glitter was used on the leaves and #208 Fauna Glitter on my Ivory Music Scallop.
I created the flourishes using my Art Glitter Designer dries clear Glue & Ultra fine Metal Tip, then I added #160 Rose Gold glitter.
I continued to create flourishes along the sides of my Christmas Pillow Box Ornament too!!
Here is the other side.
Here is the top
I used my Art Glitter Glue and tip to add polka dots to the top of my piece.  There wasn't any room for the flourishes :0)

There was room on the back though :0)
All my ribbons and trims are from Really Reasonable Ribbon!!  I used the 1 1/2 inch pink crochet lace, 5/8 pink crochet lacetextured two tone rose ribbon, pink micro gingham, moss green leaves, light pink and ivory 20 mm mulberry roses.  


 I will be sharing at the following places
Brag Monday at The Graphic Fairy.

Advent Calendar Pillow Box, Traditional Christmas Tag and Gift Bag

Hello Friends!!
I hope you are all having a fabulous day!
Hard to believe it is already December!!
It is December 1st, which means it is time for a new challenge at Really Reasonable Ribbon!!
This month we are only having one challenge, and it is a BINGO challenge!!
Here is the Bingo card.
You will need to pick 3 in a row
( I did a full card for my projects...lol)
and use RIBBON!
First up is a Traditional Christmas Tag, with a Gift bag and tiny tag.
Second is my Christmas Advent Pillow Box
Pin It!
I started out with my two new sets of Digital Collage sheets.

Here is a closer look at my projects.
I used Art Glitter Designer dries clear Glue & Ultra fine  tip to add glue to the focal image.  #196 Lion's Mane was used on the inner ivory colored circle.  #349 Garnet for the scallops and text boxes.
#295 Ensalada was used on the Holly 
leaves.
I used the same glitters and goodies from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I added some Red Mullberry roses, lipstick seam binding, Edna Lace, and Red Satin Ribbon and Red snowflake ribbon.
I also used #79 Black glitter on my numbers, #160 Rose Gold glitter a round the edges of the tag, and my numbers.
You can see how I created my tag above and how I added glitter to all of my pieces that I have done.

Next Up is my Advent Pillow Box
This is the front!

Here is a look at the side.  You can see the Edna lace and Gingham that I have put around the box.  I used the micro gingham as my hanger.

Look at the back.
You can open the bottom and fill it with goodies, then hang it on the tree.
You can watch how I created the Pillow Box from my Collage Sheet in my
Youtube Video below.

Anyone who purchases my Advent Calendar Digital Collage Sheets Sheet sets or has a $25 purchase in my Etsy, will get my Plane Candy Canes Digital Collage sheet for free.
I can't wait to see what 3 choices you make when creating your projects for our challenge at 
Really Reasonable Ribbon this month!!
