Well you would, wouldn't you when you see an empty OXO box?
So you find and download of images from Crafty Computer Paper
and enhance the colours with chalks
They are so sweet
You paint the oxo box with blue pearlescent paint, and stamp it with a lace stamp - all over.
Glue it all back together, and add a picture for the front
Another for the back - and then fill it up with whatever takes your fancy!
