I have a thing for boxes.

Keepsake box

If you don't already know, I have a thing for boxes. My fave thing to alter is always a box. They are quick to make, use up lots of scrap and may distract the recipient from the not-so-fancy gift inside the box. *LOL*

I'm entering it for the challenge over at City Crafter.

Supplies: Crate Paper patterned papers, stickers and chipboard, Kaisercraft pearls, Maya Road trinket pins, Ranger distress stickles in rock candy, Martha Stewart butterfly punch, twine, button, ribbon, upcycled tin box.

P/s: Have a great weekend friends! Don't forget about LESSology Challenge #5: Jars of Cuteness and my guest Chantal's postage stamps challenge! :)
