Pattern Info

This project was designed by Gayle Wright.
Info can be found at:

Kaisercraft writing table.

Instructions

After gluing the paper I wanted to use on the top of the box, after painting, I cut additional pieces out of the same paper and used pop dots. Glued some flowers and the lock element on. Finally I sprayed the whole project with Aleene's Matte finish sealer.

This will be a cute keepsake box for my granddaughter.

This is the type of work I also like to do. You did a beeeeutiful job! What the heck are 'pop dots'? Is that what made the 3-D effects? High five!!!!

Yes, they are also called 3D foam squares, but I use them a lot for the 3-d effects. Thanks for liking my project.
