magnolia box





Hello everyone thought I would just pop on and show you a box I made last week, I got the tutorial from a blog (which I cant remember at the moment, when i do I will add the link). It was realy nice to make for a change instead of a card. I gave it to a friend last weekend for her birthday with a necklace inside, I think she was pleased.
Anyway heres some pics of the cute little box
