Today we kick off another FUN challenge at Fussy and Fancy...hosted by Millazin who has chosen "Two of a Kind or Pairs" as the theme!!!
Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is Crafty Sentiments Designs!!
I decided to make my Granddaughters' Christmas "card" as they fit right into this challenge because...well as you know they are twins!!
I also decided that it was time for another explosion box...it's been a while...lol!! They usually put up a small tree in their room so I thought that maybe this could go under it as a decoration/present!!
And once again this is picture HEAVY!!
Here is what I came up with...
please click on the first image for a closer view/slideshow...
ALMOST everything about this project is paired...
the inside of the box is decorated with a fire place (double mantles)...
only one tree...
a "Bear Pair" Poppy & Henry by Crafty Sentiments Designs...
tea light fire surrounded by logs made from Delight crafting clay and coloured with copics...
a pair of tags for my pair of girls...
computer generated sentiment to our "Darling girls"...
two pairs of poinsettias on the mantles, two strings of pearls and two berry clusters...
close up of tree that I made with four sizes of scalloped circles...stacked and attached to a thin dowel then decorated with pairs of rhinestones and berry beads...
only one string of pearls...
gift...
second gift...
front with back mirrored with same Maja paper from the "A Gift for You" 6X6 paper pad...
same ribbon, snowflake charm and Memory Box Tree die...
the other two sides are decorated with another paper from the same collection...
the bottom corners are decorated with pine cone/branch die and berry cluster...
all four sides are punched with Martha Stewart snowflake edge/corner punch...
stick pin decorated with beads, ribbon, Christmas tree charm, berry cluster and shabby seam binding...
the Memory Box tree die decorated with tiny red rhinestones...

I had to come and take a closer look at this gorgeous box, and to see if it was a tealight in the fire, and it is! What a lot of detail, it must have taken ages.
