I made another chipboard box (you can see the first one here) the other day and just finished it up tonight. I used up another sheet (my LAST full sheet!! WooHoo!! LOL) of my Spring Flowers Designer Series® paper - here's links to Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4 of my "resolution" to use up ALL the paper from that pack to make room for the NEW!
So here's the box I made:
The chipboard coasters are Medium Weight white coasters that I got from StarLitStudio. I used Mod Podge to adhere the paper, sanded the edges, then used my Crop-a-dile to punch all the holes for the ribbon.
This fun image is one of the Inky Antics Girly Girls - I stamped it onto Whisper White CS, masked it then stamped the a*muse large oval to "ground" the image. I then colored it it using Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol, cut it out and glued it onto the box.
I think this would be something fun to have sitting by the phone w/ some pens/pencils and paper to write messages onto and whatnot!
SO.....whoever leaves a comment on THIS post by tomorrow (Tues Jan 16) night will be entered in to a draw to WIN this box! AND just to sweeten the deal there's something inside it:
I thought I'd throw in over 100 Prima Flowers from my stash!
Good Luck!! :o)
ETA and FYI - Your comments will NOT appear right after you post them (it says that right before you enter them - but it's easily missed!) as I approve all comments before they're made public (thanks to some VERY nasty things that were being posted!). So don't worry when you don't see your comment - it's just in "pending!". AND for those that are e-mailing me to be included - PLEASE leave a comment on THIS post - I get a LOT of e-mails and there is no way I can keep track of all the entries if they are in more than one place!!
Leaving a comment is REALLY easy - you just need to click on the Comments link at the bottom of this post (then scroll down past all the previous comments) - put in your name, e-mail addy, and site (if you have one - if not leave it blank), then type your comment (and yes I DO read each and every one! They make my day!) once you click to submit a little picture will pop up w/ letters/numbers in it that you need to type to verify (helps prevent bots from spamming my site) and that's it!!
I also wanted to say THANK YOU to all of you!! I'm blown away by the amount of comments and all the kind words!! :o)
We have a WINNER!!!

And I guess I should have told y'all that assembly is required for this *blush* - there were a LOT of questions on *how* I attached the bottom - well for this one I didn't!! I wanted it to be able to lay flat for mailing so I didn't glue the bottom on - the 4 sides are all attached w/ the ribbon and when pressed down they lay flat! I used a hot glue gun to attach the bottom on the first box I did (link is near the top of this post) and that works great!!
Thank you EVERYONE for all your comments and kind words!! It's been SO nice reading all the awesome things y'all said about me and my blog! *grin* Hopefully I can do another Blog Candy post in the very near future *wink* !!!
