Here is the inside of the album. It is filled with lots of bird related tags for journaling and pictures.
This is the last page in the album.
The box on the outside is decorated with lace and pretty pearls along with rolled roses from the Bitsy Blossom Spellbinders die.
What Birthday gift would be complete without a sweet little easel card to tuck into the box. I used the same images, dies and roses to match the altered matchbox.
These are altered clothespins that I tucked inside the box I mailed as a little added gift. I just loved making these. I decorated the packaging to match everything.
This was also tucked into the gift. Some little stick pins that I enjoy making. Thanks so much for stopping by today to view this very long post. Glad you could stop by today and join me for a moment,. I will see you soon. Here's a little video with more details about this project.
Thanks for watching!
wow this is stunning Carol and beautiful made.

Another beauty, Carol! Someone is going to be very pleased to receive this. Your talent knows no bounds.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, I do know the Geico camel. I think he really gets on the last nerve of some of those employees. Ha But, I understand why you like him. :-)
I don't know ANYONE who can alter items the way you can & make them into just absolute works of art! They are all just little mini masterpieces & this is no exception. Someone is going to be just blown away with this gift! (I love the camel too! And for the same reason)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful altered matchbox, Carol! Another stunning creation!

Stunning project...I need to make a Bird book for a dear friend...you gave me some inspiration for doing mine...
ReplyDeleteWow! Beautiful projects!! Your friend is going to be delighted when she receives this amazing present!!
ReplyDeleteCarol - you crack me up! I can just visualize your creating heart, smile, and fingers as you make your masterpieces. The details - well, they say it is all in the details, right? I cannot get over the tiny tags and tee-tiny elements in your mini album which is nestled in a match box! Do you just DELIGHT in your creations as you make them? Tiny little jewels, die cuts, pretty papers, shabby elements - amazing. Darling tiny 4x4 easel card with the sweetest little "shaker" element! PRETTY little Birthday gift set, and I DID very much enjoy watching the video. Beautifully glitter-full, and wonderfully designed, and totally filled with Carol-Love. Thanks for sharing you, Carol. hugs, de

Oh man, your gifts are always fun, inside AND out!! These little goodies inside are such treasures, fun to sift through. The outside is dripping with gorgeousness, as always. Hugs! Been thinking about you!
ReplyDeleteWell, this one has 82,000 details and layers - totally AMAZING I love everything about this! The box alone would have been a wonderful present, but the mini album, card, and pins make this the limousine of packages/presents. So creative, so inspiring, so beautiful! wow! Hugz!
ReplyDeleteWow... your friend is lucky to have you as a friend! What a wonderful birthday gift and it's gorgeous!! I love that hump day commercial too... especially at the end when the lady sighs and says it's hump day and the camel goes "whoop whoop" with his cute little crooked lips. LOL
