Tall Tealight box using Pretty Petals

I have had these tea-lights sat on my desk for months! I found these beautiful Pink Pirouette coloured tea-lights in Primark, for £1! and had to bring them home to make a box! I love it when I find items that perfectly match Stampin’ Up! colours, it makes gift giving so damn easy!

I can’t believe I have got this far into the blog post without mentioning that adorable Designer Series Paper! I did not think that this DSP was for me – it has a weird colour combination; Basic Black (which is what put me off!) Calypso Coral, Mint Macaron, Old Olive, Pacific Point and Very Vanilla. I am very much a Whisper White girl; I use Very Vanilla occasionally but I go through miles more Whisper White. So between the Basic Black and the Very Vanilla – I had decided that the Pretty Petals DSP stack was not for me! that was until I received a sample in a product share – I am converted! These papers are gorgeous! You have got to grab a pack (its only £7.25) and find out for yourself!
