We are All of Us Stars!

Soooooo...... I failed to tell everyone when the end of the give away will be. Duh. I will be drawing the winner on April 7th and will notify the winner right away. Sorry. There's still time to play. Just follow the link: WOW Give Away .
Here's Sunday's Project:
I found this book box at Ross and just fell in love with it.

When I started to altered it, I realized I didn't want to deter from that gorgeous picture.
 I just added a handmade ribbon flower and used my Want2Scrap bling.  
Isn't she beautiful?
Here's a close up of the ribbon flower and I used Close to my Heart hatpins and button. 
The inside of the box just needed a little somethin' and I had a few Marilyn photos and hand wrote one of my favorite quotes from her.
You can't really tell here but I Utee'd the chipboard and added more ribbon to finish it off. I don't usually hand-write anything, not sure if I will again.... :)
Enjoy a wonderful week everyone.

Saw your post on OWSE, Kim. Had to take a peek at what a lazy girl has been up to. I love Marilyn! Your hand lettering is pretty great too. I write like an epileptic chicken myself, LOL.
