Paper Craft Projects

Recently, I've had several clients' call and request that I design a project for them that isn't a scrapbook. Even if I've never done that specific project, I will always give it a try. I've had four jobs in the last month and only one was an actual 'scrapbook'. Here is one of my recent projects (pictured here and below). A client wanted "something" done with a large toolbox that would be used to carry her daughter's dance supplies. She requested that it be "embellished", "girly", and that it not "look like a toolbox". It also had to be waterproof. So being the paper crafter that I am, I suggested decoupage and adhering embellishments with a really strong glue. After enduring the pain that comes when learning any new skill, we have a beautiful final product and, more importantly, a very happy client!
