Altered Cigar Box w/Minis

I participated in a Altered Cigar Box Swap sponsored by Lia at SD Scrap Shack.  The theme for September is "Steampunk" and in addition to altering a steampunk cigar box we also had to create a mini album.  I had fun with this one....I hope she likes it....Here is a video  and a few pics of the box I altered and the minis I made...TFL ladies....Okay lady....once I pack your goodies ....your box goes postal...Hope you like it........

"Jolly Holly" Mini Album

These tini mini albums have to be the cutest lil minis ever and so easy to make.  I did not post the directions...but if you youtube it you can find loads of videos to make it.  It's called a 12x12 one page mini album Of course you can use any size paper you wish.  I have made some as small as 1.5x1.5.  This one is 3x3.  It's not too small...just small enough for a few journaling notes and mini photos.  The box that holds it is a 3.5x3.5 jewelry box  I decorated.using the same PP I used to make the mini. Here are some pics....and thanks for looking......
