I started with this box:
First I wrapped it in a dp with a green pattern, I used a lot of double sided tape to make it stick. =) Then I colored two of the nymphs with promarkers, a tree-nymph and a bird-nymph from a rubber club set! =) I also printed out two sentiments from the set on orange cs and mounted that on a dark green cs.
I mounted everything on the box using glue and as the last touch I added washi tape from IKEA with the text "Open Me" around the lid and on the lid.

SvaraRaderaElenor, that turned out beautifully! Now you will have to remember not to put anything secret in the box, as everyone is invited to open it ;) Lol!
SvaraRaderaHi Elenor, You do have gift for altering boxes and this is super gorgeous. I love how you kept the same color scheme but gave it a fabulous new look. Thank you for sharing this in our first challenge on Recycle, Re-Purpose & Re-Invent. It is good to have you playing in one of my challenge again and hope you will come and play often.
