My Grafico Challenge 3

Hope you all are having a wonderful Sunday. Today I made this little box from some My Grafico Digital Paper. This set is called Tyka Patterns. Our challenge this week was to use this paper set to make an altered project.

I created a pattern for this box from a little cardboard box I had laying around. I opened it up and traced the pattern on this paper, cut and folded. The taffy is from a parade we went to a couple weeks ago. The small town I grew up in has a fair & parade every spring. My kids love catching all the candy. My son loved the fire trucks & police cars, but did cover his ears as they passed.

Hop over to see the other DT creations Here. And wanna play along? Hope over to the My Grafico PCP group.

Hmmm I grew up on the west coast and spent time at our families coast house often and one of the best things about those trips were all the chimes when the wind blew and salt water taffy!! Yay! I'm afraid that I would have made this box, filled it with candy and by the time it made it to wherever it was going the box would be empty! LOL Beautiful!
