🎀Altered Brie Box with Keepsake Journal

 🎀

Hello friends

I was asked to make a little journal filled with motivational & inspirational quotes for a sweet girl to read before she sings at auditions, concerts and lessons.💕 And of course I had to make a gift box to present it in! So searching YouTube and Pinterest for inspirations, I found the perfect idea! I used a empty Brie Box for my gift packaging and used my Cricut to shape the round journal pages.🙂

🎀If you would like to see a beautiful video flip through of this gift box and journal, please click on the link at the end of this post.

Lets take a look at the Gift Box and Keepsake Journal💕

🎀Here are the stages making the gift box.

🎀I used Graphic 45 die cuts, paper flowers & 
pretty trim for embellishments.

🎀I included a little glass bottle filled with sparkle. 
Just to make sure she sparkles everyday😊

🎀I filled the journal with matching die cuts.
Put Tim Holtz Distress Oxide on the page edges.
Washi Tape on the center bindings to make it more secure.

Hope you have enjoyed seeing this gift set I made.

They came all the way from New Zealand! Took awhile to get here, but worth the wait!💛I will put a link at the end of the post so you can order them too.
