Grunge GreenCompleted by Gwyneth George

I made a box using an A4 sheet of irridescent green 300gsm card, using half for the lid, and the other half with 2mm trimmed off two sides for the base.

The dept of the box is 1".

I printed the background off onto Super Smooth white card and cut it into panels, one for the top of the lid and narrow ones for each of the sides of the lid.

These panels were stuck to silver mirror board panels which were trimmed to leave a small border before the panels were stuck to the box.

Another strip of the printed background was cut out and this was wrapped around the paneled box.

This wrap was stuck at the join, but not stuck to the box so that it can be slid off.

This wrap was decorated simply with three faux green gems. A pretty little gift box.
