In scrolling back through my blog this week, I stopped on this little tool suitcase, that is perfect to take to card classes to hold your scissors, take a pick tool, adhesives, etc.
Using a large clear stamp case, dear husband drilled the holes for the drawer pull handle to be attached via screw from the inside. I added a piece of retired Designer Series Paper with a little accent here and there to make it cute.
Then I had lots of fun making a Shrinky Dink Initial Tag using the retired Large Letter Stamps, Stazon Ink and my Heat Tool. I punched out the oval shape with one of my retired oval punches, then I punched with a 1/4" hole punch for there the beaded chain would do through after it was shrunk down. Stamped the letter I wanted and turned the heat tool on to watch the plastic shrink down. When it is done I pressed it flat with a clear stamp block until it cooled. Finish up with coloring the edge with a black sharpie, add the chain and a cute accent bow.
If you have a large stamp case in your collection, give this idea a try! Or maybe you can find some through Ebay or Etsy possibly. When you take it places, people will oooohh and aaaahhh!
Have a wonderful day!

What a great way to use those cases! I can also visualize putting candy or a small gift with a hand made card to make it the "envelope".
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, I agree with you, the case would definitely be a fun way to make a "gift" box!
