DIY Mod Podge Valentine Suitcase!

Guess what I made this out of?

Yup.. 

An OLD Cereal Box!

Here's what you NEED to make one!

Cereal Box

Paper Mod Podge

Scrapbook paper

Glue Stick 

Twine

Ribbon

optional: 

Pom Poms

Cutting tool

Cricut 

Start by turning your cereal box inside out so that the interior has the pictures in it. 

(ignore the handle that comes later and this was me playing with the idea!)

Next glue the box flaps here

and here on both sides. 

Next grab your cutter and measure how big your squares are and cut your scrapbook paper accordingly.

Grab your Mod Podge and a foam brush and get gluing!

I started with the bottom

 and worked my way around

 and up the interior of the "suitcase".

Then I started on the outside.

When I got to the top

I added some cute Valentine themed "stamps"

Next cut two slits for your ribbon handle

and Mod Podge to the interior.

Then add some velcro circles to the sides and the front so that you can close your suitcase.

Then grab your cutting tool ( I used my Cricut) and cut out banners and letters.

Then cut a slip in the side and slip your twine in with your banner.

Now your suitcase

 is ready to fill with Sweet Love Notes for your special little ones this Valentine's day!

Hope you LOVE this project as much as I do!
