I got to practice with my little sewing machine, it's not so easy trying to stay straight on the ric rak...lol  I used everything from my stash.  Oops, naughty me I made the card at work so I didn't have any of favorite tools. I had to use my fingernails to do all the distressing and my hands to wrinkle and crinkle it.  

The cardstock is pretty heavy duty so the little box is very sturdy.  The DP and Chipboard are from the Debbie Mumm line that Jo-Ann's put on super sale last year.
