Shoebox Memories

Hi Girls (...and boys?!)

Recycling week and it's my turn again. I, Elin, absolutely LOVE to recycle stuff! As a matter of fact; I recycle all the time in my crafting. This time I used a shoebox that came with my 4 year old's new shoes last week:

Boring carton right?? All brown and ready for the garbage most people would say.
But hey wait...what happened???

 Yes; it's the same box! I added a bit of white gesso on the edges first, then used Riddersholm Design's cool retro papers: Fleamarket "Notes" on the top of the box and Fleamarket "It's Time" on the bottom. 

I used my favorite stamps from Inkido: Carte Postale and Post Card to spice it up a bit. As you can se I also used Gesso around the edges on my papers and on a stencil with the word "memories".

In an attempt to keep this post sweet and simple, I used a die to make a frame and the gorgeous picture is from Pion Design: Ladies.

There's still time to join in on our monthly challenge....

With love,
