Damask Divas La Belle Vie Blog Hop

Hello and Happy New Year!  Welcome to the first Divas blog hop of the year.  If you came here from Traci Williams' blog, you are in the right place!  If you have jumped here and just discovered our blog hop, feel free to check the list at Damask Divas blog http://www.damaskdivas.com/ to find the complete list of blog hop participants.

Using the beautiful La Belle Vie paper pack, I made two different projects.  First, I made an exploding box as a present for my daughter.  She turned 5 two weeks ago and I wanted to make something special and fill it with some of her favorite things.  I also made a little charm bracelet for her.

 The second layer was made with pockets for money.

 Third layer has cards for messages from mom, dad sis and brother.

 I couldn't leave little sister out 

so I made her a little something too.

The supplies that I used are :

• La Belle Vie Paper pack
• Smoothie Bakers Twine from Paradise Assortment
• Exclusive ink pads Hollyhock and Archival Black
• Bitty Brads basic assortment
• Bitty opaques pearls
• Mini-medley in Colonial White
• Artiste cartridge
• Ribbon, ink for edges and some hemp cord

Since I made the box a while ago, I wanted to make something new.  I decided to dress up a plain black picture frame.
