Memory Book Box

Hi Everyone!

Is time just flying by or what...It's time for a new Challenge  at Simply Create, our theme for the next 2 weeks is "Shades of Black".   You can have other colors with at least 2 shades of black/gray.

I have been hoarding this SU DP for eons and decided this would be the perfect time to use it.  At our last crop Gail showed us all how to make these gorgeous Book Boxes.  Thanks Gail! 

I kept the design pretty simple, I wanted all the cute DP visible.  Of course I used my favorite tools...had to use my Cuttlebug and some Nesties and distress the edges.

I am keeping this Memory Book Box for myself.  I will be keeping some of my Mother's treasured black and white photos in it.


This was really fun to make, the crimping was the hardest part...yikes, it ate my paper!  I crimped the edges of the box.



I am entering my Memory Book Box into the following Challenges:

Hope to see you all join in the fun at Simply Create!
Thanks for stopping by, bunches of hugs
