I turned the box canvas around to made a three-dimensional piece. I created the setting with stencils, texture paste, acrylic paints and embossing powder. I worked the over the sides as well as the face of the box. These are the materials I used:
Papermaze Mask - reverse brickwork
Crafters Workshop Template - Mini Chickenwire Reversed
Ranger Texture Paste
Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Acrylic Paints, I did some dry brushing with lighter colour over the brickwork.
Stampendous Frantage Embossing Enamel - Shabby White
I rubbed some gilding wax over the chicken wire to bring out the detail.

I created the background with Bo Bunny Soirée - Charm paper covering the back and then layering up flowers which were cut from the edges of the paper. I stamped with a stamp from PaperArtsy JOFY stamp set 38 and embossed with a fine detail embossing powder.
The Hive, bees, and flowers were stamped using PaperArtsy JOFY Stamp Sets 30, 33 & 38 and coloured with Distress Markers. I used the page from an old book for the hive. The flower stems were strengthened with some acetate to help it hang or stand from the box.
The bunting (top left) and button tab (bottom right) were made with Bo Bunny Soirée - Buttons and some DMC stranded cotton threadg
Thanks for looking
