Pootlers Blog Hop Tutorial: Desk Top Adhesive Storage

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it and hope you like the project and will take a look at the video tutorial as well.  Yesterday I was on a Blog Hop with the rest of the Pootlers, Sam Hammond Donalds Team (Pootles). Today as promised is the video tutorial for the adhesive desk top storage I made. 



Nigezza Creates Pootlers New Catalogue Blog Hop: Desk Top Adhesive Storage using Stampin' Up! Follow Your Art



Measurements and Materials


I have used card stock, the new Follow Your Art Designer Series Paper and one die from the new coordinating Die set Arts and Crafts. There are lots of measurements for this project but it is fun to make and once all the pieces are cut it takes about an hour to put together.

I made all the inner parts in Thick Whisper White but while making it I thought that it may have been better if I have used the same colour card stock as the one I used to cover the outside with.

The storage sections


Back Section

  • Thick Whisper White card stock 6 1/2" x 6 1/2"
    • Score @ 1" on either end of one side
    • Rotate a 1/4 turn
    • Score @ 2 1/2" - 3 1/2"


Middle Section

  • Thick Whisper White card stock 6 1/2" x 5 1/2"
    • Score on the Long side @ 1" on either end of one side
    • Score on the Short side @ 2" - 3"


Front Section

  • Thick Whisper White card stock 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"
    • Score on the Long side @ 2" on either end of one side
    • Score on the Short side @ 1 1/2" - 3 1/2"


Divider for the Middle Section

  • Thick Whisper White card stock 3" x 6" (but shave about 1/16" off each side) 
    • Score on the Long side @ 1" - 3" - 5"
    • Score on the Short side @ 1" on either end of one side


Tombow Glue Holder

  • Thick Whisper White card stock 5" x 6" (but shave about 1/16" off each side) 
  • Score @ 1 1/2" on all four sides

  • First Mat Costal Cabana card stock 

    • Back 4 1/2" x 3"
    • Front 4 1/2" x 1 1/2"
    • Bottom 4" x 4 1/2"
    • Sides (2 or these) 4" x 3" 
      • Mark 1 1/2" on the bottom of one short side
      • Draw a diagonal line to the opposite top corner
      • Cut along this line
      • repeat for the other side
    • Add about 1/16" to each measure to allow for the joins
      • Every card stocks differs slightly and there is human error so you may need to adjust slightly 


    Second Mat Pacific Point card stock

    • Back 4 1/4" x 2 3/4"
    • Front 4 1/4" x 1 1/4"
    • Sides (2 or these) 3 3/4" x 2 3/4" 
      • Mark 1 1/4" on the bottom of one short side
      • Mark 1/4" down from the top of the opposite short side
      • Draw a diagonal line between these marks
      • Cut along this line
      • repeat for the other side


    Designer Series Paper Mat - Follow Your Art

    • Back 4" x 2 1/2"
    • Front 4" x 1"
    • Sides (2 or these) 3 1/2" x 2 1/2" 
      • Mark 1" on the bottom of one short side
      • Mark 1/4" down from the top of the opposite short side
      • Draw a diagonal line between these marks
      • Cut along this line
      • Repeat for the other side remembering to do the mirror image because it is being stuck to each side of the storage


    Decoration in Costal Cabana Card Stock

    • Cut 4 borders of buttons using the Arts and Crafts Die set


    Make the whole for the glue holder

    • Use the smallest stitched Circle die to cut a hole in the centre of the middle square after you score the card stock
    • From a scrap of Whisper White card stock Make a square 1 7/8" x 1 7/8"
    • Punch a 1 3/8" scallop circle from the centre of this circle

    Now watch the video tutorial to see how this was made :-)

      1. Wow! Thanks Carole, it always blows me away when people make what I share. I love the Perennial Essence DSP and I will definitely be making things with it that stay in my craft room as it is too nice to give away. I bet it looks so pretty, I am hoping that these nice desk top storage will encourage me to be more tidy! lol
