Creating a keepsake box

I may have popped into Hobbycraft last week when there was a sale on..... I needed A4 white card for my son's birthday party...... so it's only natural that I came out with a deep box picture frame!

We have lots of tickets, invites, photos and keepsakes that are in various places around the house, so I decided to make a keepsake box to store them all in, thanks to my Hobbycraft bargain.

I took my box apart - carefully so I didn't have any incidences like my TMNT frame! Then added a little quote on the glass front from various stickers that I already had.

I took off the top panel of the box with my handsaw, sanded and then re-covered with black washi tape.

I then took out the top of the inner panel the same way.

The back board is a perfect 8 x8 scrapbook size, and I decided on my Gorjuss books scene paper for the background.

Once all of the above was completed I set about putting the frame back together and to my delight, the box is strong enough to keep all the sections secure with just 3 panels.

What do you think?  I love it, and can not to see it fill up.
