Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator
Welcome to my blog, thank you for joining me today 😀Today I am hopping with a brand new blog hop, Zero Waste. This is right up my street because I love to upcycle and reuse rather than throw away, it's better for the planet right? So this gave me the excuse to use a packaging box I have been holding onto for a few years now as I knew I would think of the perfect upcycle project for it. So i have turned the packaging from the Stampin' Up! Stampin' Blends storage into an Index File box for my handmade cards. I have used some of my favourite DSP to decorate it that way I get to see it and love it.
Measurements and Materials
- Box measures 6" tall - 5 1/8" wide - 6 3/8" deep
- Strips to cover edges are 1 1/5" wide and scored @ 3/4"
- DSP Mats for the box
- Front and back 5" x 4" in floral print & 2 1/2" x 5"
- Sides 6" x 4" in floral print & 2 1/2" x 6"
- Dividers 6"x5" - you may need to shave a little off the side to make it fit
- Tabs are made using the Everyday Label punch
- Cut a strip of card 1 1/2" wide
- Score @ 3/4"
- Fold and burnish
- Put in the punch with the folded edge below the cut part of the punch
