"Yes yes, I have created another Steampunk Spells project! Can you blame me? Lol, these papers are amazing! I wanted to create some sort of “treat box” and after lots of thinking, I decided on this! You could use different sized matchboxes to house all kinds of candy! Your kids will love it! And its as easy as gluing some boxes together, then finding a little “home” for them! I wanted to stick with a cream and black theme, I LOVE all the colors of this line, but this color combo is always a classic. " -Miranda
