Keepsake Altered Box | Graphic 45 Life’s a Journey
Hello fellow paper crafters! Today I’m sharing this stunning Keepsake Altered Box. This project uses the NEW Graphic 45 Life’s a Journey 12×12 paper collection.
I just love to alter boxes and the one that I used is the 5×5 Graphic 45 Mixed Media Box in Ivory. You may use any of the other Graphic 45 boxes if you can’t come across this one.
I gathered some inspiration for my altered box by scrolling through the Graphic 45 project sheets. If you’re not familiar with their free, downloadable and printable, project sheets, I explain how to get them in my project share video.
So I used Robin’s idea of Placing a tag along the keepsake box closure; and to add that Dimensional effect to the top of my box, I used the same concept that I do to make my framed easel pop up cards.
