Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge #16

Good morning everyone and welcome.  It is time for Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge #16. Who Loves School and Office Supplies? Most paper crafters also love school and office supplies. We love crayons, markers, shaped paperclips, notepads, folders and more.  If you hoard school and office products, get them out and let's play. Use at least one item that is really a school or office supply on your project.  You have until midnight PT,  Sept. 28, 2014  to enter your project on the Craft Hoarders Anonymous Blog. 


I made a 3" square box out of black card stock and covered it with paper printed from Crafty Secrets Vintage Typography CD 3.  The butterflies and bingo cards are also from the same CD.  I took a tiny piece of the card stock and covered a little office clip and it holds the newspaper print and bingo cards in place.  Flowers are from Heartfelt Creations stamps and dies and I sprayed the flowers with Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Spray in Cocklebells Coral.  The centers of the flowers and some of the butterfly bodies are Gala Glitz in Brown.  I love the little bit of sparkle it gave my project along with the Starburst Spray! I hope you love this little box as much as I loved making it!

The team sponsors for September are Heartfelt Creations and Crafty Secrets.  The gift for this challenge is a $30 gift certificate from Lindy's Stamp Gang!

Fabulously fun and creative! My goodness! What an awesome centerpiece this would make on the game table, or anywhere, really. Love it so much! I have plenty of office supplies I've been hoarding.
