Vintage Chocolate Box


Hi everyone, 

Today I have project created for my Meg's Garden Design Team for this month, it is a chocolate box 
with the Elements papers from Meg's Garden and 
New paper collection Dreaming in the Meadows



Firstly, I ate the chocolates.....yummy.....
then I covered the top and bottom of the box with 
dusty pink coloured card stock, 
which I embossed with a Couture Creations embossing folder.
I applied white Distress Paints on the embossed cardstock. 
It looks and feels like velvet.




On the top of the box I decorated it with
German Scrap border on the each edge. 
Then I glued some German scrap border on the each end.
I apply glossy accents to the chipboard frames and placed
some German Glass Glitter and tea stained fragments. 
I placed a paper Doily and a Vintage Beauty Image
inside the glittery frame.

I adhered two Organza Lace in dusty pink and green 
at each end and a 
transparent Butterfly for an extra touch.




Around the edges I covered with the newest paper collection
Dreaming in Rose paper , some German Scrap
To finish and close this 
box with a Striped satin Ribbon - Brown and latte colour 






Inside the box I covered it with
French Cinema Elements paper from the
Elements Packs available also from 
Meg's garden website. 
Then I decorated on the edges with small
 paper Doily and German Scrap







Inside the box is a Vintage Beauty tag and a little note book
and matching pen. These are made from the new papers 
Dreaming in the Meadows paper - Dreaming in Mulberry & Dreaming in Lavendar





The materials I have used on the tag are 
Striped satin Ribbon - Brown and latte colour 
5cm white lace

The notebook and covered pen is made with the
Dreaming in Mulberry paper
Cornsilk flower
Elements for the Paris cover

Thanks for looking

Happiness - Meg's Garden


Hi there everyone, today I have created a 
layout for my DT assignment at
Meg's Garden. 
Using the La Blanche stamp- LEAVES.
Meg's Garden website are stockist and sell
these wonderful stamps which are available at

Wishing you happiness


The stamp I used is a new release 
from La Blanche

 in the packet you
get 2 stamps, I used the one with the
script writing in the background.
I stamped the sections of the image 
around the side of my cardstock 
for a background and then I 
also stamped on an extra cardstock. 
Coloured and cut out extra leaves
Using Vintage Photo, Wild honey and 
Bundled sage
Distress Ink stains to
colour the leaves.


Adding foam tape underneath the leaves to
give them more depth, I also added a few more
around, creating a cluster of leaves
falling down. I love the fine 
details of these stamps, 
each vein of every leaf, looks so real.

The butterfly is from the TRANSPARENCIES also available from Meg's Garden, 
so bright and detailed are these butterflies. 
They look great on any project.

I also fuzzy cut flowers from
Forget me nots fabric paper  P6305
I also created some Lavender coloured 
flowers from
the new paper collection
Lavender Rose P6342 - 
The rose collection papers.

Also added some fibres and Velvet flowers
all available from Meg's Garden website
The paper lace Doily underneath my photo
has been slightly tea dyed with tea mixture, 
I quite like the vintage look of it.
