This is the first in my series of keepsake boxes. Very romantic and shabby precious. The inside is lined with a cotton fabric, faux pearls around the inside and a pink paper rose in the center.
The top is surrounded with mini pink paper roses, snipets of vintage lace in the center with a large, pink paper rose and faux pearls. I also added a painted key to your heart with a satin ribbon bow.
What  a lovely gift to give someone special or to keep for yourself. This and more is available at Someplace In Thyme.

    What a beautiful beautiful box. Just precious.

    I read your comment over at...Pat's (Mille....), anyway, and just laughed out loud. What a fantastic idea to have a scratch off winner and put it in a gift box. I am surely gonna have to do this..I would love to give all 10 grands and their moms and dads one. Too cute. I'm gonna do it..well, if I CAN, that is. :))
