This started life as a box of Arial washing tablets !!! I have been meaning to make a box to keep all my lovely Simon Says Stamps in ever since I saw teamie Iris's fab box ( you can see it here
)
I used SU paper and some brown/pink coredinations. The letters were cut out on my cricut. the pink card was inked with antique linen ink and the edges distressed using a stitch unpicker/cutter ,,I find these work really well. I coloured various simon Says Stamp images with copics and plonked them on the front :-) I am really happy with this and plan to make more to keep my Magnolia's, Penny Black etc etc :-)
thanks Charisma Cardz Challenge for giving me the push I needed to get around to this :-)
Thanks for looking :-) I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)

Hi Lorraine, I occasionally landed on your blog and like what I see here. You do wonderful artwork! And so I will make a visit again on your place from time to time to see what's new.

What a lovely box!!! I´ll try something like that for my clearstamps, it´s a great idea! I´ll try my stitch unpicker too for some paper distressing, hehe! Thanks for sharing!

Lorraine, this is such a great box you've made! I struggle with how to organize the unmounted stamps I have. This is a good idea, now to find a place to put all the boxes of stamps! Never enough room!!
This is fab, I prefer this version as like the sloping front...............I want to do some............think I am changing washing powder....LOL
