Altered box AND a card!!!

First up today I thought I'd make a card(as I haven't made one for a week)It was inspired by the following challenges;
Anything Goes Challenge Blog#44 Letter D(die cuts/deckle edge/dickie bird/distressinks/distress stickles/designer papers/door hinge)
Oldie But Goodie#22 Anything goes (stamps over 6 months old, Angel Company hinge stamp +Crafty Individuals bird)

My next project is for this weeks Altered Art theme at Try It On Tuesdays, who are sponsored this week by The Craft Barn
We were asked to alter a box, any box, any way we liked. So I took the opportunity to make a second volume storage box for my journal pages :D

The purple dp is from Crafters Companion Fairyopolis cd, while the buzzy bee background is a scrap of paper I clean my stamps on, cool huh!

Inside is lined with another paper from the Fairyopolis cd......

and these too pics are to show the depth.
The image is me again( a digi I made using the photo/sketch method I showed in my last post)
I would like to enter this project for the following challenges;
Simon Says Stamp and Show# a word(all the text is stamped)
Dezinaworld Spot Prize challenge# Treasure( a box full of treasured thoughts)
