Tissue Box Holder

 Morning and the new challenge at Pearly Sparkles is  "No Cards Allowed/Anything but a Card"

 I have made a tissue box cover using  dies from Spellbinders with Cosmic Shimmer Gold Gilding Polish round all the edges.

The Indigo Blu Butterflies were stamped onto my boiled papers I made a few years ago and finally used!-fussy cut and put onto 3-D foam.

Black pearls and lace from stash-black ribbon and bow was recycled -wrapped round new pyjamas.

Done and quite pleased how it turned out.
