Pink and Gold Altered Cigar Box



I bought this embossed paper at an art supply store a while ago, and last summer I decided to do an altered cigar box with it. The paper was shaded with Delicata Golden Glitz, and outlined with a metallic gold pen, after trimming to size, or cutting with Spellbinders. All the paper was matted with white CS, which was also outlined in gold.

The outside was decorated with flowers, butterflies and Liquid Pearls.

On the inside, I cut some dividers out of basswood and painted them with pink acrylic paint. The latches on the front have pink Liquid Pearls on them, to make them match the box better.

  2. Very pretty. Love the colors. I discovered I had a nice cigar box the other day and one of these days I just might get to doing something with it.
    Thanks for stopping by my blog Kathi and leaving such neat comments. I have been lax in commenting lately as life gets in the way. I will try to do better. :)
