Shabby Chic Gift Box..........

For my neighbour, to say thank you for being very good to us!
I've altered a Flake box with Prima papers, Spellbinders, Marianne D's Butterfly die & stamp and Magnolia dies, Magnolia's Tilda binding flowers stamp which i stamped onto shrink plastic, coloured with Copics and embosses around the image with Cosmic Shimmer powder, also heat embossed some Fran-tage to the the butterfly. Basic Grey sentiment stamp and  finished it all off with some ribbon, lace, gems and a button.
