Hi! I am new on LJ but I have been looking at craftgirl for about a month. I love reading all of the amazing crafts you guys put together! Yesterday I made a couple things that I was inspired by from the craftgrrl archive. 

A book I hollowed out, closed.. obviously.


Opened up. I used a picture for the bottom of the box, which I may replace with a fabric sometime.
I lined the frame of the box with a little collage of pictures that came from the cut pages.


A possible money-holder?

I also saw this idea in your archive;

And I was stuck in my room late at night with not many supplies but some bobby pins and nail polish! For some of the colors I used different eyeshadows mixed with clear nail polish. These were fun & easy. I am adding them to my sister's present for her birthday tomorrow!

Today I spray-painted an ugly candle tin black and used a couple pictures from pages out of my hollowed book. Results:

The lid.


The bottom.


That's all.

I need to get used to livejournal. When I was typing this the first time I pressed backspace one too many times or something, and the whole post was gone! I had to re-do it again.. mehhh.
