A new birth - soap giftbox

A couple of weeks ago I came across a small blue plate with 4 "robin egg" rose guestsoaps in it for around 2 dollars and took it. Didn't know really what to do with it.
The papercut strips for a nest looked fake, but the leaf shape blue plate was cute.



Than last week hubby got a small box with 4 expensive bonbons in it, each praline having it's own compartment. The kids took care of the bonbons and I took the box :)

I wanted to use the lovely hymnal title freebie of vintiquities and took the one "A new birth" for my box. I used a free graphic from the graphicfairy, loads of modpodge, some paperflowers, punched ribbon, a bronze filligree swirl, stickles, blue ribbon for closing the box and some designerpaper (dotted paper is Boe Bunny, the flower butterfly pattern is K&Company I think), blue and brown cardstock, a butterfly sticker and Tim Holtz distress ink.
