This has been sitting in my drafts for quite some time now, but since the June Tres Jolie Kit came with my Newer New Mail Holder, I figured I better get this one out there. I am currently using this to hold my church offering envelopes, and the Newer New Mail Holder (post coming soon...or at least before 2023)
See below. The actual holder is a Renea Bouquets product (located here) that I had purchased "just for fun" a while back. I wasn't sure where I was going with this project when I started, but I was more than pleased with the final product! 😍
Below you can see a little closer up of the back of this. I had some vellum sheets from (dang near) literally the beginning of my scrapbooking journey (roundabouts 2003) with some great travel phrases on them. I guess even back then I was hoping that someday I would be able to scrap my travels in a timely manner (and since I'm STILL scrapping about Mexico '17 and Disney '18 we know that's a lie). However, the vellum sheets managed to getput under a pile of other stuff in my scrapbook room misplaced somewhere in my scrapbook room until I found them by happy accident a few months ago.

A better close up of one of the flower clusters and the requisite unicorn that went with my mood the day I made this! 😍😍😍
Moving over to the front, another unicorn, some flowers and some of the awesome Renea Bouquets beautiful beads! 😍
More close ups of the front of the box, lace, a Renea butterfly, some more Beautiful Beads, glitter and little flair button round out part that actually holds the mail (or the meat and potatoes of this project as I like to say)!
And finally, the other side of the front of my Older New Mail Holder with some more beads, another unicorn, some Beautiful Board and (of course) MORE flowers! 💓💓
There aren't any close ups of the front (sorry about that!) but if you go back to the top of this post, you can see I used another vellum sheet on the front of the project as well. I'm mentioning this now so that if anyone has any interaction with my husband please remember to mention how cool it is that I use my stash instead of stashing my stash! 😝😝😝
Thanks for checking it out and hopefully I'll get pictures up soon of my Newer New Mail Holder!
