Welcome back!
It's half way through November (and 5 1/2 weeks until Christmas EEEKKKK)
and time for another challenge at
Challenge 20:
BOX IT UP
Create some sort of altered box.
You can create a box from scratch or alter a pre-made one.
Your box can be made of paper, wood, chipboard, plastic or metal.
As long as you dig into your hoard to decorate your box you meet the requirements.
The box may be a decoration, a gift, a gift holder…whatever you decide, just
BOX IT UP!

This is the box I created using one of Eileen's boxes.
All sides are covered with art, hearts and little inspirational phrases.
I even dug into my hoarded stash of Gelli Print scraps to finish it off.
I can rotate it on a whim, always changing what I am sharing.
