Woohoo! I can finally scream that! OMGosh, I received an email from none other than the Queen of Altering and the proud creator of the Sweet November Stamps line, Amy Young. She asked me if I wanted to host a Monday Mania Challenge over at Club Anya & Friends. Yawza . . . what an honor! My challenge is to come up with a gift set. It must include a 3D item and an accompanying card.
Here is a Shadow Box Card using the Dahlia nestie to suspend this sweetheart. Recognize her? Ain't she just STELLA-r!!!! Ain't she just GLAMOUR-ous?
Here is a Double Shaker picture frame standing on the desk drawer set. I learned how to make this Double Shaker from Teri over at big Ideas From A Little Girl. Thanks Teri! You're amazing! If you wanna check out her tutorial on making the Double Shaker, click {HERE} for Tutorial Part 1 & {HERE} for Tutorial Part 2.
While thinking of a 3D project, I had a lightbulb moment. I purchased the Sizzix Bigz Die Cut Box #3, but never used it. Then it dawned on me that I could actually make some drawers with this. Where I wanted a drawer to be, I folded the flaps inward and adhered leaving a wide open space for a drawer pull. I fiddled around with the measurements for the large and small drawer pulls -- they were some funky measurements, but it works! :) I'll try to do another post with the measurements later . . .
Here's the view of the desk drawer with everything open. I kept the top left section as is and added a sectional piece at the center. The cover can open and close easily with the pearl brad securing the flap. Wanna know the size of this baby? It measures approximately 4-1/2 (W) x 5 (H) x 9-1/2 (L). Now that's a whopper! :)
Thank you for sticking with me through this long post. I hope you enjoyed my 3D project as much as I enjoyed putting it together. Now, run over to Club Anya & Friends and play in my challenge! I know that there will be amazing projects that will be shared. I would luv to see what you come up with!
