Twilight.............Something Special Trinket Box

Twilight Tinket Box

Happy Friday hope your all looking forward to the weekend ,mind bit cooler than last week when we where in Greenwich at the market in t-shirts no coats was so hot and warm.

I have something special to showcase this afternoon i know i promised it the other day but just havent had the time.

This is a Twilight Trinket Box created and designed by my 13yr old daughter Sophie.Who i have to say is mad twilight fan ,and in loveeeeeeeee with R Patz.Me i just dont know what all the fuss is about...!!!lol maybe showing me age....

Anyways she has created this trinket box to enclose her trickets of the filmms and also her jewelry.

She saned down the box then used a mixture of Tim Holtz Adironak inks Coffee,Latte,Silver metalic and stonwashed inks.Covered by dabbin the box with Tim holtz tool to get the desired effect ashe wanted.She then varnished the box before adding photo of twilight fixing into a frame.She then found my crackle paint and then no stopping her .Finally she added the ribbon and the flower to match .

I think she has made better job than i would have done ,she doesnt know im uploading this as she cant get into her craft blog so im gonna make her another .Until then ive added here.
Above top view of the box lid and frame piccy.
you maybe able to see crackle paint although looking
at it bit hard to see.
Blow i have just shown the lid open as has taken the piccy's too.
