Annabel's birthday gift...

I know i shouldn't stay up late at night to make stuff but I forgot one of my good friends birthday on Wednesday. So I stayed up until 3 a.m. making this recipe box. Why? Because Anna-smelly rocks and I know she appreciates it. It was worth it because she loved it. And I love her so it's all good.



The box is one of those wooden dollarama boxes that normally has a lid. I took it off because the cards wouldn't fit with the tabs on the dividers if I left it on. I just covered it it CS and DSP. It turned out great and surprisingly straight given the hour. Nice. Bed time for Big B. Ske-doosh.
ETA: If anyone is having a problem commenting on my blog, could you let me know please?
Thanks!

You're projects always look so "finished" ... I love that.

Do you doodle the borders yourself?

Total cuteness.

Shoot! I have been telling myself I don't NEED that stamp set.... But maybe I do... I could always turn them into Christmas Gifts (I'm trying to think ahead this year!)

What a nice, nice box! I have that set too and love it - thanks for another inspiration! .... btw I make my boxes myself with 2mm thick cardboard(I am not sure if this is the right word for it) ... the advantage is you fit it the size you want and it foes really really fast!
