Graphic 45 'Nature Sketchbook' - A Box With An Acrylic Lid - Tutorial

Hello everyone!

I hope you are all fine and have some time for crafting :) My today's post is for the Graphic 45 design team and I will share a project followed by a video tutorial which I hope many of you will enjoy, since it is another box, with a pull-out compartment and a notebook! The beautiful paper line is a "Nature Sketchbook" collection by Graphic 45.

The box has a window lid, with a very sturdy acrylic insert, which gives the whole box an absolutely different look and feel. It is more shiny than an acetate sheet, and because of it's weight it turns the box into a substantial and reliable item. 

I've used the butterflies closures from my stash. They have been waiting for their turn for quite a long time, they look just perfect with the Nature Sketchbook paper.

When you open a box, you see the notebook, which is stored on top of the pull-out compartment.

Here are a few more views of the notebook:

Once you take the notebook out, you see the pull-out compartment at the bottom of the box:

I put little cards in there, which were created using the leftover papers. I wish I created them in the ATC size and exchanged with other crafters, but somehow, I did not think about that, and they measure 3" X 4", instead of 2.5" X 3.5" :)

Needless to say that this paper is so very stunning! I stocked up with some spare sheets besides those, which I received in the DT package :))

If you want to see how all this was put together, or even create a similar project for yourself, here is the link to my video tutorial:
