Give your craft or package a scrapbook look for no cost by upcycling an old cereal box. The above embellishments used to be part of a box of Mini Wheats glued on an used bubble wrap envelope for a no-cost gift wrap, but it could be used on other projects as well. When I was cutting out the tokens for the free DVD promotion is hit me to try to decorate a package with the colorful parts off the box.

Description

Give your craft or package a scrapbook look for no cost by upcycling an old cereal box. The above embellishments used to be part of a box of Mini Wheats glued on an used bubble wrap envelope for a no-cost gift wrap, but it could be used on other projects as well. When I was cutting out the tokens for the free DVD promotion is hit me to try to decorate a package with the colorful parts off the box.

Instructions

  1. Small cb 2bstart

    I cut out letters from the box into squares of letters and strip from the side for the top of the box. As there was no letter "i" on the box, I improvised by using a other parts on the box to create the letter.

  2. Small cb 2bcap 2bcircle

    To make the circles, I traces around the cap off of a bottle of soda.
