Morning everyone I hope you are well and have enjoyed the holiday festivities and are now biting at the bit to do some crafting and enter some challenges? I hope so because today sees the start of a new challenge at Crafty Ann's the theme being, 'Something New'. Now this can be anything like a new project or maybe a new craft item that you got for Christmas.
I decided to make a box for my 6x6 cards so I can fill it up and give as a present. I have used an image that is available from Crafty Ann's Digital Shop I really enjoyed this project and was inspired by so many of the lovely creations on your blogs.
I have used the graphics programme My Craft Studio to make the border then enlarged the same image for the main focal point and coloured with pro markers. I cut the circles using my XCut circle thingy's and for a bit of texture used my Pin Flair multi punch to cut out loads of little shapes in yellow and green and 3d them with silicone glue to one of the Daffodil flowers and stems.
I hope you like my project and come join us at Crafty Ann's.
Please note that you do not have to use Crafty Ann's images but please visit the shop to have a gander as there are some gorgeous images and papers available to purchase and the prices are just to good to be true.

This is fabulous Lorraine, I love the idea with the tiny punched flowers - you must have the patience of a saint but the end result is so well worth it. The border you created is a brilliant idea too, whoever gets this as a present will be well chuffed and the fact that you will have also filled it with cards is an added bonus!
