I am still in a vintage mood, so this is the project I made for the Jugs challenge. The simple box template comes from a project I did at a Stampin Up workshop years ago. I covered my box with a page from an old horticultural book that I misted with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Coffee Shop. I really love that Glimmer Mist, it adds instant aging with just a touch of soft glimmer. I cut the poinsettias on my Cricut, Joys of the Season cartridge. The cs is Stampin Up Sage Shadow and the red is one of the limited edition colors from another year, maybe Pomegranate, also misted with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist Coffee Shop. The lace is hand crocheted, I found it at a garage sale this summer, what a steal! I bought a box with about 20 feet of the lace and about 10 skeins of the embroidery floss. The half pearls are from Michaels. I hope you enjoyed, thanks for looking. ~Diane
