My Creative Space: Cigar Box

Hello friends!

This week I altered a cigar box.

These are fun because I create a more distressed and art deco style. 

 

 

For this one, I used Circa 1934 paper by Cosmo Cricket. This has been one of my favorite paper lines and I am excited that Moda will release it in fabric this Fall.

 

The 2 vintage ladies on top are from the Domestic Goddess paper line by Graphic 45.

I pulled out lots of Tim Holtz goodies to add to this box and one of my favorite items is the film roll ribbon. It's so cool! I was lucky enough to run across a pile of old metal clock hands at an antique store recently and added that to the bottom corner.

 A good way to use up leftover paper scraps is to cut them into 1" squares and piece them together. I love how it looked as the background on the cover and around the sides.

 

Wishing you a lovely Friday, Lindsey
