So during my scrapping hiatus, I did manage to make a really cute gift box by altering a matchbox. I saw the idea on someone's blog (I am thinking Lisa Pace) and thought, "How cute!" The matchbox is the perfect sized box to hold a pair of earrings or a child's bracelet! I used some papers from the October kit at The Nook, ribbon from my stash and a Happy Birthday stamp! It came out really lovely! A good friend of mine received it for her birthday.
I will have some layouts to share soon. First, I need to work on something for a scrappy secret that I have!!! I know exactly what I want to do, have the supplies, but haven't jumped in yet. Silly, but sometimes I get nervous to start a new, important project!! Wish me luck!
Hope you get some scrapping in this weekend!
Such a great idea! Cute little box!
