2015 CHA La-la Land Flamenco Marci Trinket Box

Another project from 2015  CHA (Craft and Hobby Association which is a special show for paper crafters) held early this year. Irina from La-la Land Crafts who had a booth with some fabulous Make and Takes: On this second day, the Make and Take was this Small Hinged Trinket Box found here in the on line store.  I did change the papers to a Burgundy embossed card stock and also selected some decorative Black and White paper for that "Spanish Feel".  The stamp is the newly released Flamenco Marci found here. No coloring necessary.
The fan is also a newly released die: Heart Fan die (found here) cut both in Kraft paper and Black card stock giving this embellishment dimension n texture. I smeared some Gold Viva Pen ink on the folds.
On the bottom left side, those roses have some gold smeared on them using the Gold Viva Pen, too. The leave are a Open Leaf die found here.
Here's the back of the box: the Book Tab die is used along with dots of the Gold Viva Pen for the "screws".

Front of the box has the heart lock from the Book Tab die:
The finishing touch: wooden feet adhered to the bottom using a hot glue gun:
Thank you for stopping by to visit today. I love these small hinged trinket boxes.  They make such a great gift.  Hope this inspires you to make one, too.
