Treasure Box!
So, my biggest hobby these days is “blurfing” (blog surfing). I’m trying to make an effort to change that though.
On one of my trips through blog land this week I saw a post called “Magic Boxes” on Lou’s Life as Lou blog. I’ve been thinking about it all week. I did a half-hearted search for a template, and then gave up, and decided to just wing it.
I made the boxes with the lid pattern from doing the scrapbook in a box. Nona Davenport, a Close To My Heart Demo, has a really great tutorial here showing how to do the entire SBIAB.
Anyway, I made my boxes with pieces of paper that were 10 5/8 inches square, and the lid was 11 1/2 inches square. I did very little stamping here, just for the tag in fact. I don’t know what I’m going to use it for, or do with it, but I wanted to make it!

And here it is opened up!
