Hello there! I do hope you are well and thanks for visiting! Well its time for something a little different today - and here it is - its a packaging box from create and craft that I've turned into a sewing box - so all my little odds and ends can live together and I'll know where they are!
to do this I've used sticky back fabric fro the papermania happy days collection and added it to the box by cutting out shapes after drawing around the box. Then I've decorated the box with diecuts from spellbinders sewing set and crafty emblies pieces and flowers and buttons. The text stamps are from Clarity Stamp. I'm so pleased with this and I hope it helps to keep me tidy!
I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
panpasteluk: Alter it
crafty-emblies: The Dressmaker
fabnfunkychallenges: Vintage
pileitonchallenge: Vintage.
I've got a cracking Christmas card to share with you tomorrow - so I hope you'll come back for a look and thanks for visiting today! Big crafty Hugs for a happy weekend!
