Altered Journaling Box

I put this together yesterday to go with the journal I made a couple of weeks ago. I really enjoyed the process of this, it was all made with found materials...true scrappin! I thought that the altered journal needed either an easel to go with it, or a box to store it in, so this was the result of that. I built up a platform inside so that the journal was raised up, used modge podge and it gave the paper a wonderful waxed feel. I trimmed the edges in gaffer tape (love that stuff) and it covered the rough edges of the cardboard nicely. This all goes to the recipient this weekend...hope he likes it!
