My project uses the Window Box Thinlit Dies as well as the Eastern Medallions Thinlit Dies. They work well together as the Eastern Medallions Dies fit perfectly with the Window Box Die.

I’ve used Smoky Slate for my Window Box and embellished it with Basic Black and Lemon Lime Twist.

I’ve alternated the die cuts on the side of the Window Box. I’ve also added in some stamping from the Eastern Beauty Stamp Set in Basic Black and Lemon Lime Twist and finished off each side with a Basic Rhinestone.

My assistant Marvi was on hand for the photo shoot. He inspected the box only to find nothing in it. In fact, I think he poked his tongue out at it.

I had seen an amazing blog from Tricia Raineri and she had made some hexagonal cards to go in the Window Box. I CASEd her idea and made 3 matching cards.

Here is a picture of the box and matching cards together.

Marvi wasn’t sold on the cards, judging by the look on his face, but I think they’re cute. There was a bird on the fence that was much more interesting for him to look at.
