It's a Boy

 Morning and DIL asked for a baby pop-up box and card as her boss has just had a little boy---now I really struggled with the box as didn't keep any baby dies and stuff when decluttered !After a rummage I found one sheet of suitable-ish P.paper,some plastic nappy pins,a baby boy tag and image/metal baby feet charm/ bear button/some co-ordinating ribbon and dewdrops in a tiny set of plastic drawers with all oddment stuff in---Banner die from Memory Box, the image was from Bugaboo Stamps -not really happy with result but DIL is so hope her boss loves it too.

You've done an amazing job with this Carol, isn't it typical that when you get rid of stuff you find you need it again! A great idea to put the nappy pins inside the box, love the bugaboo image - so cute and your box is beautifully embellished. I'm sure the recipient will be as pleased as your daughter!

I think this boxed turned out lovely. If you’re anything like me me you probably can’t see it yourself because the process of making it was a struggle. But that is something only you know and feel, we others see it for what it is:) Thanks for joining our challenge at Try it on Tuesday as well.
