WOYWW # 556 - “Make a Box”

    It’s Wednesday and there just might be a little craftIng going on here at my work desk... I decided to spend a little time getting “Sunkissed” today as I jumped into the January “Make a box challenge” hosted by Graphic 45. #G45Box

This is a left-over tin box that I had laying around and using my new favorite paper “Sunkissed” collection by Graphic 45, I created a little treasure box for my granddaughter to hold all her seashells and treasures from our recent trip to the beach while on our cruise this past December.

While highlighting papers from Graphic 45, I accented with buttons, a frosted eggshell bow and little green brads. My technique used was paper piecing to bring out the elements on the top and to draw attention to the little poem that I love.
