Ahoy Matey!

My best friend's baby boy Lennon just turned 1 years old, and had a pirate themed party down in Orange County. Unfortunately, we weren't able to make it, but I'm sure it was a blast. For his card I wanted to make it special, so I decided to make a treasure box. This is how it turned out, and I'm pretty happy with the results.


I bought a box from the craft store, and wrapped the lid with the polka dot paper. The flag and telescope were embellishment stickers (Jolee's), but I made the pirate using different paper punches.


This is the final product. I drew out a treasure map, added some more embellishments, burnt the edges, and added some chocolate coins inside the box. I know he won't be able to eat the chocolates, but maybe his parents will be able to enjoy them. For Lennon's card, I sized a piece of card stock, where I wrote my birthday wishes to him, and adhered it to the bottom side of the lid.

bye for now..
