Faerie Marci Round Trinket Box

I totally forgot to share this project with you.  This round trinket box was one of the project at my last Workshop and it was also one of the samples for our Booth at CHA.  This trinket box features FAERIE MARCI, one of the stamps which was released CHA in Chicago just a few weeks ago!!  

I made a round trinket box with a circle Easel card on the top of the lid.  I think it turned out very pretty and feminine.  It's whimsical and has a magical feel to it with all the lacey elements, vellum flowers, butterflies and pearls.  A perfect fit for our pretty Faerie Marci!!

Pretty in Craft

I admit, I really LOVE craft cardstock and have been using it on the majority of my projects lately!  There is just something about it..  Some understated beauty.. Especially when it's distressed with Vintage Photo ink!!  I love making monochromatic cards with it (like the one I posted yesterday) and to combine it with other colors and papers.  For today's projects used Craft cardstock along with Black!!  I think it is a very striking combination!! 

Once again I can't decide which card I like more out of these two..  They are so different and both are beautiful in its' own way!!

These are some of the projects for my JUNE Workshop.  To see other projects for this Workshop please click HERE.

I just LOVE how these cards turned out!!  It is the same design as you can see, I just used different color cardstock and distressed it with different color inks.  I don't even know if I have a favorite one of two, I love them just the same!!  :-)
