I knew someone's birthday was coming up and i wanted to make it special. I am a fan of altering things and when i came across this box at a charity shop, i thought, wow..what can i do with that? So when the time came to make this special gift, i pulled out this easel box.
Now i just wish i could figure out how to duplicate this box because i like this concept a lot.
I treated the cover of this box just like it was a card...it actually is a picture frame that i covered up.
From the markings on the bottom it is from Hallmark Card Co. Measures about 5.5".

I have used a sweet stamp from Lili of the Valley called Milly Flower Power. The dies i've used are Joy Craft Butterfly border, Lifestyle crafts Lacey frame 8 and the pop up butterflies are from Spellbinders.
I have another friend that makes these awesome paper flowers and i purchased these from her as the money goes back into helping to rehabilitate wildlife in MA. I also have used an embossing dotted folder.
