With so many different styles of cigar boxes out there, I had to do another one! :) Now since I took soooo many photos, I will try to keep the reading to a minimum. :)
I used our Graphic 45 Tropical Travelogue collection throughout the entire box as well as the mini!
I made this flower using some of our Color Me Crazy flowers and some I had in my stash. I also made the stick pin with some pearls I had in my stash.
Here I used Glossy Accents to enhance the flowers in her hair and I used Shimmerz on her eyes and lips! Here's some more views of the outside of the box.
This is the front.
This is the side. I did both sides pretty much identical.
This is the back.
This is the inside with the mini in it.
I tried to get a good pic of the inside to show that I used some Diamond Stickles to accent the fish on the paper all around the inside and just used some felt from my stash for the bottom.
Now for the mini! :)

DeleteDid you paint the box before you started? I love love this and Graphic 45 is one of my fav lines
ReplyDeleteYes...Sorry I forgot to mention that as well. :) I painted it with a black paint with a glossy finish. The hardest part was waiting for it to finish drying to get started! :)
DeleteThat is gorgeous!! I have some cigar boxes around here I'm going to have to dig out; you've inspired me...
ReplyDeleteThank you Rosanne! I'm glad I've inspired you!! :)
DeleteWOW! Your altered cigar box is amazing Pebbles. You did an awsome job with all the details on box. I cannot find the words that give it justice except that your project is outstanding and your design is beautiful.
