Convention Make 'n Takes - Project #4

This was the super, over the top project from Convention 2011!  In this one we covered (or "altered") the new Card Keeper Box from the Holiday Mini catalogue - (page 35, Item 124107, Stampin' Card Keeper, $10.95).  It's only $10.95 (Canadian price) can you imagine!!!!

The top is covered with the Timeless Portrait Designer Fabric (main catalogue, page 196, Item 122337, $12.50).  The box comes with templates so you can cover the top and / or the sides and bottom.  The plate where the word "Cards" is not attached when you get the box so you can decorate behind it as we did here, before you attach the plate and add the sign.
Here is a picture of the fabulous flower that adorns the top.  It has a Clear Crystal Simply Adorned Bauble in the center and about 5 layers of petals punched out using the Blossom Petals Punch.

And now for a look inside where the 6 dividers are covered in the matching Tmeless Portrait Designer Series Paper (main catalogue, page185, Item 122352, $13.50)....

Oh how great this will be for a special Christmas gift filled with home hand crafted greeting cards of all types.  A special gift for someone who has everything.  Nothing is better than hand crafted in my opinion.
I hope you get to alter some of these great boxes.  The quality is superb, they are very sturdy and the white is not glossy exactly, but very, very smooth and luscious to the touch.
Thanks for popping by, hope your long weekend is going great.  Today is the Annual Bullhead Durby at our Salmon Festival.  Off now to watch our grandson, James catch a big one!
Happy Stampin' ....
