Sneak Peek: Day 3

Do you have a box of odds and ends that are sentimental to you, but you really don't know what to do with? I do. It's an old cigar box and has a few pictures from my childhood, foreign currency, ticket stubs and even one of those key chain photo things from Canada's Wonderland.

My Crush Modville

They're all special things I don't really want to part with, but not anything I'd want to make a full scrapbook or even 12" x 12" page with. Just small memory tokens.

Well, CTMH knows most of us have a little box, or envelope, or drawer of these things and has come up with a way for us to preserve these small memories in one place: My Crush.
