Description:

This is #4 in the Crappy Configuration Series!

I love shadowboxes and tin-type trays and all the possibilities for little treasures in each section! Tim Holtz has an amazing line of products perfect for altering, but they're a little pricey for my budget. As "crap-stars" I think we can create a configuration using "crap" we have on hand. Think outside the box (no pun intended) and use a cigar box, a paper mache box, even a decorative book style box, etc. to use as your shadowbox. You can make shelves out out of heavy cardboard, wood, rulers, etc. Of course, pre-made shadowboxes or configurations are acceptable as well.

FUN STUFF: The theme for this swap is Valentine's Day!

Fill each section of the configuration box with items that will inspire the recipient to enjoy Valentine's Day. There is no size restriction for this swap, but the configuration should have at least 3 sections.

NOT SO FUN STUFF: No late sends-- Do your best work and rate fairly and timely.

A supremely crappy (and cheap) way to do this would be using matchboxes glued together.....now I must join your crappy swap....

Heide, I made a 13 Days of Halloween configuration using a cigar box. It turned out good but I had to really squeeze the 12 matchboxes in the cigar box and the 13th was on the outside. Anyway, I do like your idea and now I want to join this craptacular swap!
