Anyone use something different?

I made this box for Vim out of an old software box:

box for timIMG_7329.JPG

Cute bunny paper, eh?! the inside is stripey:

I used a lot of this gold rub-o-matic stuff. I can’t remember what it was called. But it was quite handy not have to cut all the paper exactly to size, instead I just rubbed all the edges and crevices with the gold rub. Handy!!

I also made a tray for Jack. I t was a bright orange industrial tray that Vim probably got at urban ore back in the day. Now it has robots all over it.

robot tray made by me

I really have a lot of thoughts like: Oh! I’ll make this for Jack and he will treasure it forever and remember it and love it because i made it for him.

I hope I’m not setting myself up for brutal disappointment. Only time will tell what kind of kid Jack will be. Hopefully he will like robots… If not, I will just decoupage OVER it with bunnies or whatever.

for instance our goal this afternoon was to make the crappiest collages on the planet. imagine our surprise when they turned out kind of okay? :P
