Over the weekend I posted on my Facebook page a few products that I had sitting on my desk. I've been wanting to make this project FOREVER! I'm excited to show it to you today!
I wanted to make my kids something special. A little trinket box with fun memories of Mom. I used a tin that I purchased from HERE years ago. It's perfect for this project. On the front I used one of our bottle caps (aka Soda Pop Tops #129388) and placed a photo inside. You will want to watch the video below because it's a fun technique using pattern paper along with your photo. If you look closely you can see the words "winner" coming through our faces. I love how this turned out.
On the inside of the tin I created these tiny little envelopes that fit a 2 x 3 piece of cardstock or in my case a small photo inside. These tiny envelopes are all made using our Scallop Envelope Die Cut. *OH MY WORD* They are the cutest things ever and worked PERFECT for this project. You can see how I made these on the video as well. *I will note on the video I tell you to cut the small scallop edge off. While it's not necessarily a MUST… if you cut the scallop like I show in the video you can reuse the scallop as I've done above on the first envelope. Again, watch the video and this will make more sense.

Here you can see the little photos I've tucked into the envelopes. Do you notice a little sneak peek of a product? Look closely! *wink*

Fabulous keepsakes and wonderful video!!!
Adorable little treasures. How did you get the little poloroid photos? xo, Marian
Marian, it’s a FUji Film camera called Instax. 🙂 It’s a little beast that I love. 🙂 I take it everywhere. 🙂
Love the clever use of the scalloped envelope! Perfect for a jewelry gift or just a teeny little something!
Thanks.
Thank you Dee. You know that Die Cut had not seen my Big Shot in a long time. I really had to dust it off. Glad to see it used again. 🙂
