An Apple A Day

Autumn greetings in August!  Today I have an altered paper

 mache apple box that I dressed in SEASONS: AUTUMN

by Authentique Paper

I traced the box's bottom and top part of the lid onto the desired paper and cut out.  

Use a thin layer of glue to attach the papers to the box.

A bone folder helps to form the paper when you come to the leaves and stem.

I found that it was easier to cover the side of the lid with trims rather than trying to attach paper.

I kept the design on the front simple by layering on frame stickers and sentiment.

Looking for flowers?  These paprika colored mulberry flowers by Petaloo match perfectly.  I tied on a corduroy button with jute string and also added a bow of the same

string to the cluster of flowers.
