special advent box in vintage stlye

I would like to take part on your challenge: Udfordring 10 http://vintageudfordring.blogspot.com/2010/11/udfordring-10.html
I made this year an unusual advent calendar, it get a box shape and a vintage style.



I used an old paper box (antiqued and chalked it). The box received a key lock and wood decoration to match the style
I used the lid of the challenge required stamp style
(embossing pulver). The flowers and the beer cap (decoupage) are made by me. I bought all the rest ingredients. I printed a picture of a textured sheet. I downloaded the image from here: http://vintagestampers-freebees.blogspot.com/


 
Inside the box there is a  Hungarian text: Christmas is not about giving or getting presents Christmas is about loving each other. Merry Christmas!


The 24 pieces of box are mostly made with decoupage technique but there are some from simple paper too.  I saw the idea about the using match boxes here: http://misscutiepiegoes80s.blogspot.com/2010/11/christmas-2010-for-you.html
 

This box is a namesday present for my mom, she celebrates it next week.  Since I moved from home she is lonely, I would like make her happy with it. So that she can think of me every day till Christmas. My mom collects angels and loves vintage style; I hope she will be very happy about it.

I hope I understood the rules of the challenge and thank you for the inspiration and the opportunity to play. If you have any question about the box feel free to ask me.

Greetings from Hungary,
Rose
