Twilight Altered Gift Box and Goodies


I hosted a Twilight SS (Special Sister) 1 month Shoebox swap, where you alter a notebook, alter a shoebox, make some bookmarks, add at least $20 of Twilight goodies, favorite adhesive, ribbon, stickles and other things and I had 2 partners: Cathie and Claudia. One of my fellow swap members sent a box to another and her daughter sent a box to the other's daughter. I felt terrible when I heard that she (my dear new friend LauraH. and her daughter) did not recieve anything back. So, I contacted Laura and said that I would make a box for her daughter and be a sort of "Angel" to her. I was going to alter a shoebox, but found a really neat shiny gift box that I altered. I bought Laura's daughter a Hallmark Edward and Bella Christmas Ornament, Twi Stickers, Twi Pens Assortment, and several more goodies. I altered the top of the box, sides and the bottom. I hope she truly enjoys the box. I enjoyed creating something for someone who loves the series as much as I and to be able to give something to someone who deserves it.

Twilight Eclipse Secret Sister Shoebox Swap Results- Claudia



My dear friend Claudia was my 2nd partner in this swap, and she did a remarkable job in everything she made and bought! She altered a shoebox for me (see all angles), then filled it with some great items. She altered a Coffee Cup/Holder in Twilight Colors, created some wonderful bookmarks. I was so excited when I saw the the altered storage holder that held Twilight related stamps (wanted but had not purchased yet). She used her Cricut to create several Twilight insipired "Cuts." The chipboard will come in handy for some upcoming projects. I am amazed everyday at the talent that was given to each and everyone of us. She included stickles keeping with the Twilight theme along with my favorite ink pad!Thank you Claudia from the bottom of my heart, I love everything! I think she has the Midas touch because everything she creates is beautiful.

Twilight Shoebox Swap (My Finished Projects)

So, I was involved in, yet another, Twilight Eclipse Shoebox swap and I had 2 partners. I had a fun time creating these boxes. I even taught myself how to make "skittles"***(see note). I wanted to share with you the boxes I created and hopefully my partners won't sneak a peek, :) hehe.
