One in a million :)

Hello All,

I have been kinda silent on the tutorials, and I apologize. Largely to myself because I love writing tutorials and spreading the joy of creation :) But I have been terribly busy. One of my closest friends' B'day is SO close, I am afraid my gift won't make it in time and I must knock myself on the head for almost having forgotten that her b'day was approaching! Duh! But I remembered and I hope she likes it, she is after all, the ONE IN A MILLION people you get to meet. I want her to know that SHE has been a great inspiration for me and that I look up to her, as a guiding light :)

A jewellery box for a gem I have come across in my life :)

I can't seem to stop photographing it! Thanks to Honey for her photography tips :) The quality of photographs is suddenly so much better! :)

Addition: The box IS hand-made, from the back support of a sketch book. I have finished using up the pages and the cardboard at the back was lying around. I cut it up (after some involved calculations as the box has been sent to my friend with a personalized poem written on a scroll inside, the scroll had to fit in the box) and made the box. The black paper used is 130 gsm black card paper. The red is ordinary 80 gsm printing paper and the red lining inside the box is 300 gsm red carton paper.

Happy Quilling
