It's often hard to come up with something hand made for a boy,
but we must not forget they love to receive handmade things too...
I made this for my nephew as a little extra gift for Christmas,
I am going to fill it with chocolate coins :)This cute little box was in my
Design Team Pack, and I just couldn't resist stamping again with these fabulous stamps :)
I used my Stampotique Originals Head & Mr Stripes, The Box is by Collections Chipboard Box & frame set and it was super easy to use, I really enjoyed making this little box.I used my glue stick to adhere old maths text book pages to the box, and PVA glue to glue the corners, then attached little brads through the circles that come with the box, then inked up the corners
other bits I used were Grungeboard Crown, brads, button, acme label I made here
Have a Wonderful weekend everyone :)

Hi Gill,
You use this lil guy and his spider so well!
the box is gorgeous and I love how you have used the grunge board to make a crown, I might have to get mine out for a play this Wend.
Take care.

This is a fabulous box, Gillian, and I am sure your nephew will love it.
Boys love having things to put things in -- rocks, coins, dirt -- you know:)
that is a fantastic box. I love the maths on the front cover!
Boys do love to have their own little box to put treasury....
cheers
