ATU #25 {ALTER it}

Hello, friends and Unity/Ippity addicts and lovers:}

Well it's time for a new challenge over at  All Things Unity! This 2 week challenge is to ALTER anything (journals, frames, candles, jars, etc.) using your Unity or Ippity stamps! 
I wanted to be a bit different so I used an old French's Fried Onions container to make this super cute Valentine Day treat box!! Which makes this perfect for the Paper Crafts Feb. 2011 challenge {make a VDay project}. I also think this fits the Unity monthly challenge {hearts}. First I cut coordinating papers and then stitched them together. Then I attached them to the cleaned container with a brown bow. Then I stamped my images [Unity Togetherness Icons, Togetherness Families, Tell Me More, A Little Happy, To The Moon & Back]. LOOOOOOOVE how this turned out! 
That's it for me today, BUT you have got to {IT'S A MUST!!!} check out what the ATU DT gals made--this will def. get you inspired. Welcome again as our February Guest Designer, an original All Things Unity DT member, Ashley Nguyen Newell!!!
