Scallop Window Box treat CI#209

Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.

Tonight I'm joining in with the Colour INKspiration crew and our awesome colour combination!!

I have to admit, I struggle with purples - it was the colour of my school uniform if that's relevant?  But I do love this lovely image and gorgeous seating arrangement and I especially loved the circle feature with the foliage on top!!  Sooo pretty.

My project features the gorgeous Scallop Window Boxes from the Bloom Boutique Suite which includes the Scalloped Blooms bundle and the Boutique Blossoms bundle.

It's a very subtle detail, but I've added Basic Beige ink to the background of the box using a blending brush and the Water and Dotty masks - the dots are all over the whole box on the outside!  

When I cut the scallop circle for the top of the box, I used the cut out piece on the inside for a fun surprise when you open the box!!  

I love a cute little gift box project!!  It's size is perfect for a handmade treat!
