I like the way the instructor explains what she's doing, and the close-ups of her cutting the book. I also love papercrafts and reusing items that might otherwise be thrown away :)

I love the idea of creating a secret treasure chest. Thank you Jody, I will definitely try this, and will make one for my granddaughter for her treasures.
