Pristine Sparkle Platter (Part 1)

H.E.L.L.O Friends ....I know its been 3 months ever since I posted last and there can not be any other reason for my absence than exams ...ya and after giving 9 written exams ,4 practicals ,pre exam preparation  and post exam relaxation.....finally im back to crafting world :))

Im entering into Itsy Bitsy Pristin Sparkle Challenge and For the love of crafting -- monochromatic

So here's my platter -wedding ,love dint decided the name yet.

The idea of making all these came when i was preparing for my Honours exam .....and imagining abt crafting was much a relief ....though the basic idea was thought during exams however d deco did change while i was actually making these.

There r total 19 pics ...10 in this post 9 in d next.....at the end a link is provided for next post.

Firstly starting with d box.....its not an ordinary box.....a magical box,secret box or an extra ordinary box...lets see

This is front of the box.....for the first time I have used lots of flower-- gardenia, kaisercraft ,IB paper flower,the oval is IB frame painted with white pearl clr.

A closer look,added some charms too and a stone.

and when u open d above flap....here's a twist .......

The big flap....one can write messages on this . 

2nd flap .....I have done some weaving ....many times a thought came to me I should not try weaving.....but i still did this and was surprised to see how perfectly it came out.....u can see some glitter balls ...yes its a shaker box/flap

And when u open the above flap....guess whats inside?? a diamond necklace,card,scrap book??

......................

......

..

Tada.....its a msg saying I love u......I was wondering why a box is only made to store something inside it ...so came up with  an idea ,a box that has a msg on its base.

I love how it turned out, specially the royal look of feathers.The word I and U  are IB alphabet dimensional, painted them with white and added glitter.Have added glossy accent on IB heart.

This is other side of weaved flap....I have made photo corners on d corners .....a standard size photo can be placed i.e the one taken from camera

A tag- some simple deco

U must have also seen lots n lots of glitter......I have used IB white and silver glitter which is spread on double sided tape.
