Happiness gift box and card set

Hi all
Here is my Tuesday inspiration post projects for Craft-deebowz. . The sponsors for this months challenge are Cute as a Button . they will be offering the challenge winner 3 images as the prize .

For my inspiration projects I have made this card and matching gift box for a friend who just loves all things glittery and purple !
I hardly EVER use glitter in my projects but as I found a whole set of beautiful fine woodware glitters in my craft room whilst tidying up I thought why not and have I used a lot of it on these projects ...
I used the new Sue Wilson stained glass window die which I backed with double sided sticky sheets and added glitter to for the main panels on both the card and box. .I used small mulberry paper roses from wild orchid .The large flower in the centre I handmade using Foamiran , stamens and a gem centre The leaves are made using a memory box die.

The sentiment is a stamp from Stampin Up . The beautiful bow was created using my Craft-Dee BowZ Bow Maker which produces stunning single and multi looped bows with ease every time .
