Altered Altoid Tin

I love trinket boxes. They are easy to make, almost always turn out super cute, and make great little gifts. You can tuck a gift card inside one for an extra special presentation. This little cutie was made with an altoid tin and some left over paper from a Stampin Up scrapbook kit. I made it in a little over an hour and it's now sitting on my dresser. It was just too sweet to part with. That's the trouble with creativity, sometimes it's hard to part with the items you so lovingly create. I also have some I made from little plastic boxes found at Target dollar spot...two for a dollar. Being creative doesn't have to be expensvie. I'll post some pictures of them in a bit.

Valentine's Card

 

 
















Over at Angelosity there's a challenge to write something about yourself for 100 days and then scrap a page!!! I love the idea but may have to do it a little later when I have more time available...I guess it would equate to a little over three months to complete it!!! She also has up some really fun card ideas. This is one that she created for her husband and it is cute as a button. I continue to be amazed at the wonderful creativity of people.
