Baby Shower Gift

I'm going to a baby shower tomorrow night. I made a mini-photo album in an Altoid tin. I decided to take Lindsey's advice on "giving your present presence" so I made this cute 2-5-7-10 box to hold the tin. Click here for the tutorial from SCS.


Recipe:
Stamp Set: Riveting (retired SU)
Paper: Darling Doodles DS, Blue Bayou, Wild Wasabi
