My Altered Box Project for JadedStudios Secret Squirrel Cigar Box Swap

Hey there!

Here is a quick video of the box I altered for a Secret Sister group I am in over at JadedStudios. I had a great time altering this box and it went out to my partner today. :)

I need to get back into the groove of writing letters. Life has been busy and I've been slacking with mail art and letter writing a bit...so my goal for the next two weeks is to get caught up and respond to all the letters that need responses.  :)

My first "official" crafty YouTube video!

I did it! I conquered my fear of going on camera to record this video showcasing the writing desk box I altered for the Secret Valentine's Day Altered Box Swap over on Life on the Scrap Beach. I love how this box came out. It was my first altered box project.

I used the Mariposa paper line by DCWV as my partner wanted her box red, white and black and I immediately thought of this paper. I just love butterflies and I hope she does too. The roses are all from I Am Roses and I colored them with Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Sprays, then I used some prima bling and flatback pearls and lace trim. 

 I am shipping this out tomorrow so I can't wait till my partner gets it. Yay!
