Tri-domino box

There is a lot going on here on this little paper mache box.  First it's painted with acrylic copper paint and line with black felt.  The top is the fun part of this box.  I had a piece of left over masking tape background from here .  It's always fun to be able to use something you have around the house in our projects.  Next I sponge a little color with chalk inks for background on tri-dominoes, placed them together and stamped Faerie Song Art Stamps ~ Fantasy Themed Images pixie boy on mushroom.  Did some select coloring with alcohol ink pens (I have a couple copic and sharpie) then edged with Krylon gold leafing pen.  Glue them to top of box and viola...done! I think this would make a good gift box for any gift...don't you?
