Notes house

A friend of mine is going back to work after 7 months of maternity leave. I made her a small "going back to work" gift to ease the "pain".

I had a box for notes that I got from a vendor at some point, so I covered it with cute patterned paper, decorated it with butterflies, punched borders and lots of shimmer.

 

The sentiment I choose to use is from the "Find Joy" stamp set by Hero Arts. I thought it is really fitting :-) and I wanted it to be in front of her every time she grabs a note. I colored it with copics and used distress ink for the edges.

 

Here is a close up on the butterfly, I had it sprayed with the Tsukineko gold Shimmer, I hope you can see it. It turned out really shiny and beautiful.

 

I added a matching tag from the left over of the paper.
