How to Give a Book a New Life as Bookbox !!



Today is the last time I will be posting as a design team member for Art Anthology!  yes, sadly, as I step down from the design team after being there for a year..

Thanks Stayce for having me, I really had fun working (playing) with your beautiful product! They will stay in my stash and I am sure I will USE them!

For a step-by-step of the process: SNAPGUIDE!!

Some photo's of the project: I had fun!

HAVE FUN!!
