I altered this mini lunchbox for today's mini madness challenge. I cased this idea from PickleTree's fabulous creation that can be viewed here: MINI LUNCH TIN AND CARDS
The story of her inspiration is just precious! IMHO, she has one of the most awesome galleries on the planet.
I changed the paper, colors, and stamp set. I already had the large flower cut out and decided that it would find a happy home on the front of this mini lunchbox. I have never altered anything before and found that getting the paper around the latch was quite challenging. It took a while but was lots of fun....especially tying all those ribbons. Being the mother of three boys, I don't tie a lot of ribbons.
I think I'll save this project as a Christmas gift...it will probably take me until then to fill it with cards anyway. TFL!!
