Edwin's Briefcase

Hi All! I'm back with my 2nd post today!
I created a gift for my Hubby. I used an old box and transformed it into a briefcase style storage box.
I used 'Edwin with Derby Hat' coloured with Copics and Distress Inks.
I used one of my new Kraft packets, a new Prima wooden embellishment, new Washi Tape, some frayed hessian, Prima papers and some gingham ribbon. I finished it all off with some stitched pvc and lined the inside with some soft fabric.
