This is my Day #1 Post!

Some of you have seen my Poe ATC box converted from an empty whisky Box.


 Well, I have been trying to sort out my craft room (and destash just a little bit!)...
 AND I found another whisky box. So I thought I would do a Valentine ATC box ...

These empty wooden whisky cases are just right for upcycling!!



This time I decided to just decorate the lid inside and out - I really like the wood of the sides...today I am just showing you the top.


I used some paper from my stash on which to print Leigh's Distressed Splatter Heart.

I trimmed this to size and layered it on another paper then black card.
I then added the two metal hearts with swan ribbon and lace and the paper rose.

I used similar papers and the Distressed Splatter Heart to make a couple of ATCs.


Here I used smaller rose embellishments, keys and a lock...




I will add my first day's makes to the linky...on Leigh's Day #1 on 12th February

Happy Crafting!
