This little house of goodies was made with the Simon says Stamp and Show Challenge in mind, where the theme is "Projects with depth".I used some leftover configurations boxes and put a roof on top using foamboard. The insides are cut from card and inked with distress inks, then stamped with background stamps. Some tissue tape around the edges to make it neat and you have a shell of a house to fill with goodies.
I used all sorts of things, little miniature bottles with real (evaporated) alcohol inside, game pieces, ideaology, springs, tape measure, an old earring etc etc.
This will be the last larger projects I'm showing on my blog for the year as I'm winding down for Christmas. I have a busy 2 weeks ahead with work, as I only get 2 days off over Christmas and have people over to cook for I have an awful lot of cooking, baking, planning, shopping to do. So I will concentrate on that and wind down my blog until the new year. I will be back with the odd card or post though I'm sure.
What a great configurations piece! I love how you've added the roof, it really makes it stand out :) The Design Team are really pleased that you joined us for the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge this week - Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful! That roof is amazing added to the configurations boxes. It really makes it unique. And all those teeny bottles and ephemera you've added are perfect in this project. Thanks for joining the challenge at Simon Says Stamp & Show.
