Painted Memory Keeper Box

I found a great Two Peas in a Bucket video that showed the CTMH Memory Keeper Box being painted and I just had to try it!! This box I created to keep all the souvenirs in from the FREE Mediterranean Cruise that I earned with CTMH (it was fabulous).

For paint, I used our white base paint and mixed in some Sunflower re-inker until I achieved this lovely yellow tone you see above. I then painted in on the box and before a side dried I wiped it with a baby wipe to soften the paint lines and give the colour a chalky look. I used some of our chipboard frames and one of our new Bon Voyage stamp set to decorate the box- last I added the sticker in the center- it is from our Perfect Day stickease set.

Here is the link to the video on you tube if you would like to see it and create your own!!

Now all my memories are at my finder tips as this box fits nicely on a shelf and even though you cannot see it in this picture- I have decorated the spine so that I can tell what is in the box at a glance!!
