"Show us how you can up-cycle something using something from your hoard!"
I have been needing a place to keep all of my Project Life cards out in the open so I SEE them and
I USE them!!! This challenge gave me the perfect opportunity!
1) I started by taking the top of of two Ziploc boxes ...
2) I covered all of the sides with Canvas Crop paper...
3) I then trimmed the top edges with washi tape...
4) I cut & adhered my patterned paper on all sides...
5) I added a border sticker, alphas & chipboard to the front...
6) taped the boxes together and attached ephemera with 7 Gypsies clip
And here is the finished project...
Altered Pages and Canvas Corp are the fantastic sponsors this month!! You could win an awesome prize from them for simply playing along with us!!
Visit the Craft Hoarders blog to read more about the challenge and to be inspired by all of the designers work!!
until next time -

I love this!! You took boxes of storage bags and upcycled to storage boxes! And. . .they're absolutely beautiful!! Love the upbeat urban chic design! Beautiful work!
Well you definitely had your thinking cap on my friend! I love how you took trash and made it a wonderful treasure. What a great storage idea!
I am seriously in awe of this project. I want to sit it on my desk so I can look at it everyday. So very cool.
Ziplock boxes!! Not only is your project gorgeous, but it's completely genius! Thanks for the inspiration! Love it love it love it :)
I think you are the only one on the team that really recycled trash and made something 100% useful. My Depression Era parents would be so proud of you! I love the colors and that you have so many awesome cards to put in your new boxes! I am a bit jelly! I use the PL cards for mini albums rather than PL. ;)
What a terrific use for ziplock bag boxes! I love the paper you used to cover them.
great upcycle storage idea - and attractive, too!
