Boxes Galore 2018 Part 4

Boxes Galore 2018 Part 4

Finally I am on to the fun part.

Glue 











I got out my self-adhesive sparkles only to discover that they were not self-adhesive. Once again Laura from Alyssa Rose Boutique came to my rescue by giving me some proper Gem glue.

Four Blue Corners
 









I had a choice of which Box to go for first. I decided on this Box for two reasons. One reason was because in my packet of Gems I had only had 4 Blue Gems. Therefore it seemed a good idea to use them on corners.

The second reason I chose this Box is because unlike the other two its pattern is not geometric. Therefore I wouldn’t need the exact number of certain Gems.

Double Blue









Since I had started the Box corners off with Blue it seemed a natural process to continue with this Colour albeit a lighter shade

Green In Between









The first two selections were easy. The question now was what Colour should I use next? Since it was a Green Box I thought it would tie in well.

White to Hi-light











I now wanted to brighten it up a little. As I looked at the Box the pattern began to remind me a bit of crashing Waves. So with that in mind I thought I know what to do.

I decided to mimic the sea idea and beside the already Blue and Green Gems I had already placed I added White ones. The idea was they were the crests of the Waves.

All for Now















With the Colour scheme now firmly imprinted on my mind I set to work. I tried not to place any Gems of the same Colour next to one another.

I am quite pleased with how it has come out. I may add a few more but I want to see how far the Gems will stretch with the other two Boxes so that is all for now.
