For my challenge project, I chose to use an image from Stampin' Dragon Designs!
My son graduated on May 27th from high school, so I wanted to make him something special that I could give him his graduation present in. When I seen this cute image of chocolate from Stampin' Dragon Designs I knew what I wanted to do. I love the movie Forrest Gump and one of my favorite quotes from the movie is..."Life is like a box of chocolates...You never know what you're gonna get!" And isn't that the truth!! Especially for a new graduate and young adult going off into the world. So I made the box below to hold his new mp3 that we got him as a Congratulations and to let him know that we were proud of his accomplishment! Hope you like it as well!!!
Be sure to join One Stitch At A Time this week and let's see something NEW!!
