I made this box for my sister April. I used this tutorial by Chris that she had on her blog Twinkles Glow with Stamps. I made the top of my card an easel card. I made the paper roses on the box. The little drawer pulls were simple brads that I bought in bulk at the dollar store. To make them match the box better, I painted the tops of them with pearl colored fingernail polish. It is hard to see in the photo, but they look like the hot glue pearls that I have on the top of the box. I added a layers of color butterfly that I used porcelain paper technique on. I added up the cost of making this box, including the chocolate in the drawers, and I think I spent $.75 on this project. But it doesn't look that way. It cost me about 5 times as much just to mail it to her. This is also for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge.
