Lidded Box Tutorial using ©Stampin’ Up! Squares Framelits
Well, at the time of writing this post *stares at clock* 9pm, I have just tallyed up the ‘votes’ from my facebook page where I gave readers 5 projects to choose from to end up in today’s post. Normally I prep video projects ahead of time, but this week has been manic as far as filming is concerned, as my children break up from school today for 2 week’s Easter holiday, and I’ve needed to get ahead.
However, it was kind of fun to see which would be most popular, and I was not surprised by this one.
I love the lid of it. The whole lid is created using the Squares Framelits, and as you know, I like to use our products in different ways than how one would think.
I did have a slight ink-versus-naturals-ivory issue. The ink won. Learn from my rookie mistake, leave the ink to dry a little longer than normal if stamping onto naturals cardstock.
Anyway……
So here’s the video for you, if you want to view it on YouTube, click HERE!
