FROM TRASH TO TREASURE

Today I felt inspired to create something out of what was going to be recycled.

So out of this :

I made this:







It's a card box to be used to house my hand crafted cards.


I fit 10 hand crafted cards with their matching envelopes in a variety of sizes into the box.

I thought it would make a nice gift or hang nicely in any craft room.
You can easily fill it every month with birthday cards to send out to your friends & family.
You could also fill it with your hand crafted cards & gift it to a friend.

Supplies Used:
Francis Meyer-Heritage Scrapbook Kit Papers & Stickers
October Afternoon Alphas
Tim Holtz Ornate Book Plate & Brad
Fiskars- Gel Dots- Black
Photo Turns & Brads
Chipboard by Cosmo Cricket
StampinUp Word Window Punch
Martha Stewart Glue Stick, Glossy Accents & 2 Way Glue Pen
Brads/Eyelets- Making Memories
Ribbon- Joanne Fabrics

Sorry that the photos aren't the greatest. Remember, I am still using my cell phone as a camera until I get a new one.

Off to grab some dinner & let my little one have her turn on the computer. She has been patiently waiting by my side and interjecting her suggestions for my next project.

Have a good night!
