This is going to be quite a long post, so if you're not up for sitting down for a while...
Anyway
Lots of pics as there is quite a bit in it. All the CS for the box is pearlised, for that extra bit of sparkle.

The top has more ribbon round the edges and some hand made roses stuck on. Made from pearlised deep bronze and an apricot papers.

A few punched leaves added from green paper.
The inside of the lid has another image from Delicious Doodles - the "mothers' day corner", coloured with pencils.

Inside, yet more flowers. I took a seperate pic of these before sticking in knowing that, once in, a pic would be extremely awkward. Made from white organza ribbon with seed beads sewn on,

The whole inside looks like this. As you can see, every side has been decorated in some way.
