My Super cool
Jacob's Ladder Box!!!!

This is the front, don't mind the mess back there please!  I couldn't wait to post these, I've been working on it almost all afternoon and evening.  I used some handmade papers I had - lesson learned, next box I'll make with different paper, this was so flexible it wanted to stretch and it was a little hard to line up.  But I love the look, worth the extra trouble. I learned this from "All Things Paper: 20 Unique Projects from Leading Paper Crafters, Artists, and Designers" by Ann Martin.  



 This is the back, I had a spool under here from photographing the inside, so that's why it looks crooked.  The pics don't quite do the papers justice, they have the same metallic copper veining, and this blue is actually a deep green blue turquoise.  My fav colors!!


Inside, with two smaller compartments.  One of the most difficult parts was lining these small areas.  



And if you flip open the lid the other way, wha-la! A larger compartment!!  This was fun fun fun!!! I am so sticky from glue, I'm surprised I'm not stuck to the keyboard.....
