Hello my bloggy pals!!
Today I want to show you all an origami gift box I made (I'm quite late in publishing the post)...I made this to gift favours to my mom and dad on Christmas...but while making the box I happened to finish almost all the chocolates I had bought for them!! and then I started sulking! All the efforts I had put in on my treadmill and cardio exercises in the past 1 month have gone waste! Of course yesss...I already feel fat:(
Well here is the box...
submitting it to the following :
colourconceptions challenge-boxes/ bag or baskets
itsy bitsy-make it festive
dreamtime designs- Christmas: a technique I have never tried before -I wanted to try origami as I had heard about it since I was a kid...off lately I also saw a few videos on youtube on how to do origami...since and I have been looking forward to try my hands on this... this technique is real fun.. but very tricky at the same time..it requires precision clean folds and a lot of patience!!
come and get it challenges-something new- used the origami technique. Totally new to me.
please let me know how you like it or any thing else you would like to know..
Open minded crafting fun - New technique- Origami
Parade your crafts-christmas winter
613 Avenue Create- used gesso on the cover to give the feel of snow..
Hugs

| Used gesso to give the feel of snow..After all its Christmas! |
 |
| Bought some more chocolates to fill in before taking the pictures...now you can guess how spacious the box is! actually I felt bad taking a snap of the empty box..it was cutting such a sorry figure! all because of me.. |
I hope you like the box.. This is the first time I tried my hands on origami! Its such a wonderful art! No use of any scissors!! (it was the only lid for which I needed the scissors.)
On the lid I used fabric bandage, lots of wet tissue...lots of gesso, jasmine border die cut, doiley diecut, lace mulberry flowers, sequins, stickpin, pielane butterfly sticker, flourish on which I applied some golden acrylic paint and chunky golden glitter..
