Birthday present

A friend of mine is celebrating her 28th birthday tomorrow, and you can't come to a birthday party without a present. Well I bought her this ... and thought it would fit perfectly in a homemade box. I will be entering this box in the Just Magnolia Challange as I have used the lovely sketch on the top, and I will also be entering the Stamp with fun challange as the challange is "not a card".
En vän till mig firar sin 28:de födelsedag imorgon, och man kan ju inte komma till ett födelse-kalas utan en present. Jag köpte henne en ... och tänkte att den skulle passa jätte bra i en hemma-gjord låda. Jag kommer att delta med denna box i utmaningen på Just Magnolia bloggen eftersom jag använde deras skiss på toppen. Jag kommer även att delta i utmaningen på Stamp with fun bloggen då den utmaningen är "inte ett kort".

Materials:
Cardstock: Bazzil Basic
DP: Shabby Princess
Stamps: Magnolia
Color medium: Derwent Watercolour Pencils, Derwent Inktense

Colour Create Challange, Stamp with fun & Just Magnolia

This was a hard card to make, not the combinding the challanges part, that came all by itself. But acctually the challanges themselves.
First there is the Colour Create Challange #15 - Blue and Green, took a very long time until I found the cardstock and DP that went with each other.
Secondly there was the Stamp with fun challange #6 a beautiful sketch, but does anybody know how hard it is to make a good octagon without a template, finally I dusted of my knowledge in trigonometry and had something that was kind of symmetric.
And last there was the Just Magnolia Challange #4 - In stitches, I do like to sew, but my free-hand stitching sucks, I tried to make some lacy daisies but they woulden't look like I wanted, so I compromised, they became x-es.
I do like how it turned out tho :)

Materials:
Cardstock: Bazzil Basics
DP: ShabbyPrincess.com (Freebies)
Ribbon: Panduro
Stamp: Magnolia colored with Derwent watercolour pencils
