I wanted to make something in a Studio 490 style using all SU products. My theme was papercrafting so I made a point of placing the newsprint paper with the words "We can do cards..." in the center to go along with the the Define Your Life words of "unique, inspire, create, and original.
I made the outside box using heavy chipboard that I covered with First Edition paper.
All the inside boxes are the BS Box #2 die. The large bottom right panel are 2 boxes nested together.
The color theme is Riding Hood Red, Black, and Very Vanilla.
I smeared the sentiments with my finger to get an aged look.
I aged the key by covering it with Black Stazon
I ran the leaves through the crimper and added old olive ink or sponged with black ink.
Heart was hand drawn on heavy chip board and covered with paper and coated with ink.
Paper flowers are Boho Blossom punch or scallop circle punches.
I had fun making this - I hope you enjoy.

Stunning collage. Love your color combination--one of my favorites. Love all those compartments. Love the diversity of images placed on the collage. Your aging technique is great.
