Over on a FB group I was invited to named mini marvels there is a matchbox swap going on so I decided to join in. I've constructed everything from scratch using chipboard and patterned papers. Above is the inside of the matchbox.
Then I made a mini book to go inside, but I'm not showing the contents yet as I want it to be a surprise for my swap partner.
Tied a piece of ribbon around the finished book to keep it together.
Made the outside sleeve and obviously made sure the contents fitted inside - lol.
And finally this is the matchbox and contents all closed up and ready to be swapped.
Paula has just started a new monthly challenge, purposely with about 3 rules, no DT, no prizes, no top 3 etc, but there is a theme, and it just happens to be take flight.
Terrific project Sam..love the way you fastened the top
