This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step
1
Mix some tacky glue in a bowl with a few drops of water, coat one of the sides of the box with glue and as you work across the box start to lift papers with paint brush, gluing over papers as you adhere them, continue until the whole of the box base is covered. Set aside to dry.
2
Take the lid and cover with storm cloud paint, allow to dry, then dry brush some pink and blue paint over the top. Allow to dry.
3
Cut blue card to measure 11cm by 9cm. Round the corners, emboss with the folder and ink the edges before attaching to the lid on the right side. Layer foiled image overlapping on the left hand side and glue in place.

Die cut branches from green card.

Twist tissue paper to create flower, gluing organza ribbon underneath. Finish with a paper posy.

Use a glue gun to add a pearl bead to each corner of the bottom of the box as feet.
