This is my scrapin Blog where I am going to keep all things I scrap about. I have discovered I love papercrafting and making things from paper and card. I have done crafts for years but have no record of them. Now I have decided it would be good to keep a record, so I am going to keep a record of everything I make so when I am forgetful I will be able to come back and go through my blog for a memory jog.

Octagonal Box
This cute little octagonal box is so easy to make. Using the nestabilities dies I cut a scalloped octagon and a regular octagon. There are a few little secrets on how to put it all together but I thought it turned out well. I spritz'd the butterflys and that made them shimmer. With Jenny'd name I used a versamark marker and interference red russet. I cut the thankyou letters from the Cricut E2 cartridge that is in the machine and I inked the edges with pink ink. The paper is from a Rosies stach that I bought some time ago at the warehouse. This little box held 2 mini crunchie bars and when I gave it to Jenny she nearly cried she thought it was lovely. I got a hug for my payment and that was great. The best thing was I made someone feel good today.
