Teacher's Gift

I made this altered cigar box and the little goodies inside for Santino's teacher.  I love the way it came.  The inspiration was from Janet Coulter who makes some of the most delightful little goodies!  Here's a link to her youtube channel, check her out you won't be disappointed -

I painted the cigar box and used some homemade texture paste with my own homemade mask made with my cricut.  Some tags and Prima printables that I had along with two pretty stick pins I made.  Hope you like -

The paper line was My Mind's Eye Lost and Found.  Love that paper! Ribbons and flowers from my stash, of course distress inking and misting. My cricut was used for cutting tags, bird cage,door, and little banner.  Obviously it's to look like a storefront.  I printed up the window pic after googling whimsical store windows and then store "name" on clear acetate that I've had forever.
