Altered Tin Folder Holder













After my nap (which felt so goood) I decided to come in here and play. My dear friend, buddy ole pal, (Patti, thanks again GF) sent me a tin lunch box for my birthday, so I went to SCS and found how to cover it, you can find that here. I used some Stampin Up 12x12 I had and being yellow and blue are my favorite colors here is what I came up with. I cut the letters out on the wishblade, punched the flowers out with a punch and after all that, cut down the folder backs and fixed a filing thingy for them. I love to organize and this takes up so much LESS space than how I was doing it so I'm tickled pink!! hope ya like, it's back to the sofa for now......I am feeling better by the way, thanks for all the well wishes, it must of worked!!!! Later GF's.

Glad you're feeling better and up to being crafty! Cute folder holder!! (Made me think about the movie Beaches, and a song Bette Midler's character sang in it during a raunchy Broadway musical -- it was about an "over the shoulder boulder holder" -- creating a bra for an overly endowed opera diva!! This is probably too much info -- go back to sleep!!
