Recipe Box (Nov/Dec Stamp Club Project)

112407-box1.jpg

November and December is such a crazy, busy time, isn't it? That's why my monthly stamp club only meets once during those two months. On the first Thursday of December, we get together and have a fun night to make a project that is a bit more time and resource consuming. It's my Merry Christmas to them! :)

This year, we're making recipe boxes complete with recipes inside from each member of our stamp club. :)

The tin I chose for the project is the Maya Road Coffee Break tin. I needed 15 of them, so I completely wiped out the 13 that TwoPeas had, and then I bought 2 on Ebay. I'm not sure of any other stores that have them available, but I bought them a few weeks ago, so maybe some stores have re-stocked. :)

Tip on covering the tin... A 1" circle punch is the perfect size to punch out an opening for the latch on the front of the box. Just find the center of the strip of patterned paper, and then punch a half circle. :)

Each recipe card is 6" x 2-5/8", so I formatted the recipes on my computer, printed out the cards, and then trimmed them to the correct size. Not too hard.

Anyhow, on to the pictures...

Idea borrowed from Derek & Lauren at Design Sponge (go here for instructions). I found the pocket to be a bit to small to comfortably fit all three books. I ended up only putting two in, instead of three. But the pocket could easily be altered to be a bit larger. :)

BTW, thanks to everyone who answered my question about using a VersaMarker in the Color Spritzer. You can use it! Thanks again! My readers are the best!

List Books - Patterned paper (Basic Gray); Kraft card stock (Stampin' Up!); plain white computer paper.
