I deconstructed a box that was a container for one of my fave cheeses ~ Créme Chéri! (cherry cheese). Although i popped out the bottom and top cardboard circles of the box to decorate them better, it is not neccessary if u intend to color it up completely ~ Too see an early (old) tutorial i did on theese kinds of boxes, see here; Créme Chérie keepsake box! and also i made a christmas themed box here.

Autumn tags 🍂

 
Var med på Bikubens Høst-scrapp online treff, og avtalte og bytte tag med en dame der i etterkant. Lagde disse tre høst-inspirerte tags/bokmerker og hun fikk den til høyre i posten, og jeg fikk en flott tag i retur fra henne. 🦉 Min mor fikk den med ugla ~ for hun er min uglemamma, omsorgsfull og heftig beskytter av sine egne og andres barn.. og så beholdt jeg den i midten selv! 😊
De er mine inspirasjons bidrag for Creative Fingers utfordring #264. Vi har fått ett nytt kreativt DT medlem, og vår DT Angelique er sponsor denne gang med en flott premie, og som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema. Velkommen skal du være! 💗 

 

and back of the tags

 

When I was at an online crop by Bikuben recently, we arranged to make and do Tags swaps with eachother after the event. I made three autumn themed tags/bookmarks and sent the one on the right to a crafty lady and got a lovely tag from her in return. 🦉 My mum got the owl tag because she's my 'owl mother' ~ fierce protector and caregiver of her children and even others children ... and i kept the one in the middle for myself. 😊
They're DT creation for this fortnights challenge #264. at Creative Fingers. We have a new creative DT member! Yay! And our DT Angelique is sponsoring with a fab die set! As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations 💗
