This is a box I altered using the New Release Blessed Easter stamp set form Our Daily Bread Designs. The image is stamped in Memento ink and water colored. I then cut it out and adhered it to the Spellbinders Labels 13 and Lattice pendant dies. The border around the box is created with a Lattice Border Punch by Martha Stewart. The pearls, I felt, just added the extra elegance. They are from Zva Creative. The DP is Chatterbox Apple green vine.
Altered Box Recipe:
Paper: Chatterbox, Gina K Pure Luxury White,
Accessories: Spellbinders Labels 13 and Lattice Pendant dies, MS Lattice border Punch, ZVA Creative Pearls, May Arts Ribbon

I love the way that you cut out the lily, wonderful color and the white framing to go with the lattice!!! Really pretty!
Oh Grace, this is a masterful and exquisite card and box!! Simply beautiful!
This is such a beautiful card! I plan to come back and take a closer look! (P.S. I liked your background music of Michael W. Smith : ) )
The design on your box would make a beautiful book cover for a wedding album. Very elegant.
sandy
Grace, Ths box is so stunning, the punches and dies and color, everything is sooo perfect. I love the soft color and I almost bought that lattice punch this weekend,,,,,,,now I will have to go shoppig tomorrow with my 50% off coupon, it is a must have!!LOL
Thank you for sharing your tresures with us.
Dear Grace,
This is really magnificent! What a beautiful, incredible box! The Lily of the Valley is just perfect! If I were trying to cut that out, I'm sure I would end up cutting half of the flowers off! I miss the northern flowers so very much! They seem to be a part of all good memories. I love every inch of it. The dp is so fabulous. I thought it was green velvet! I like the leaves on it. How did you do that? (If you don't mind.) The lattice work is stunning. I bet that took a while to do! I need to get one of those punches. (Mother's Day is soon.) The Scripture is so true! After all, ALL scripture is the truth. Right? Right! I think the pearls were a very elegant and precious touch to the box. I am crazy over the varigated ribbon, or are those paper leaves? How absolutely perfect!! I love how they are shaped. Just one question, I don't think anyone asked yet. What's going in it?
He IS Able, and Easter is coming to remind us of that fact!!!!!!
Traci S.
I have truly enjoyed your site.
My favorite flowers! What a stunning box.
Lovely! That MS border punch looks like it was make to go with the lattice Spellbinder!
Very Pretty!! That looks like alot of cutting for those flowers, wow! I love how that verse fits just right and the added color to the die cut. Wow, very pretty.

Hi Grace!
I sent you a pretty long note about this precious box that you decorated. This is my blog-hop challenge comment! Still heart-felt, I assure you. I think this is just a very striking piece. I think the lattice and the way you colored the leaves on the Lily of the Valley are so eye-catcing! The entire flower is! This would be a beautiful keepsake for someone.
He IS Able,
