Magnolia Tilda's altered Valentine Heart Box

Good morning everyone. Today is a great time to share with you another Valentine's altered project. Not 100% sure, but I really think this is the year I made the most Valentine projects. I bought a small plain light wooden box from Michael's the other day. I decided to make an elegant theme Tilda box, so I went to check out some love theme DP from my paper supplies. I found some Anna Griffin DP and thought they would fit my idea. I choose AMOR TILDA from Magnolia-licious to be my stamp this time.

I am using this project for the following challenges:
Crafts and Me Challenge - Red
For Fun Challenge - Heart
Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Anything but a card
A Spoon Full of Sugar #138 - Let's see some love
Everybody-Art-Challenge #128 - Valentine
My Time to Craft Challenge 127 - Hearts & Flowers
Papertake Weekly Challenge - Have a Heart
Magical Monday Challenge 15 - Love
Lollipop Crafts Challenge #25 - Anything but a card
Stamp with Fun Challenge #97 - Love
Wild Orchid Challenge 16 - Love is
All That Scraps Magnolia Challenge #6 - The Queen of Hearts

Here is my finished project. I added a rose from Recollection, some black feather and a little metal embellishment. For the side of this box, I added some pearls and a bow, so that it wouldn't look too empty.

that is what the box look like when it's closed.


Here are more shot so you can see this box around the side



I hope this project will inspire you to try making some altered projects. Thank you for stopping by and hope you will come again :o)
