 Silhouette Cameo flower pot die cut can be found here:

 Materials Needed:

Aleene's original tacky glue

A source of flame (lighter or candle)

and

Cardstock of your choice

I created the flower pot base using "craft" colored card stock. 

Brush on a thick coat of Aleene's tacky glue.

Heat with flame until it bubbles and becomes covered in soot.

Let cool, and buff!

The box was an old puzzle box I found at work. I painted it with 

black acrylic paint first, two layers.

Next I covered the top in a thick layer of the glue,

heated it in the flame, 

cooled and buffed.

For the finishing look, I used silver Rub-n-buff

for a two-toned metal shine!
