challenge cards and OTP

Uproar had a cybercrop on the weekend and chris's challenge was to decorate a box and use lace, ribbon and flowers with something metal....... DH emptied a cotton bud box and thought I could make that a pretty box ..... so here it is. I used bg pp from cupcake range, flowers, buttons, lace real and paper,ribbon and builders mesh, which I rubbed on the fab foil so has a glimmer, then traced a chipboard bird and stamped and inked it...... This was sarah's challenge we had to make a card using the colours of a favourite ice cream so guess what my yummy flavour was.......... choc mint, I used to love the choc mint paddlepop but they must of stop making it as I haven't seen them in shops for a while.......

for this card I used coredinations cs and run it through the bug and sanded back to bring out the green but also inked as well as it wasn't a bright green like I wanted.... builders mesh, sizzlet alpha and grass and magnolia stamps, the little pup is a penny black stamp..
