In my craft-room purging, I came across some large plastic boxes. They turned out to be the boxes that my JC Penney 2″ blinds came in. It is a textured, translucent, heavy duty plastic and I decided to try my die-cutting skills on some. So it cut some pieces 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ and die cut a mini milk carton and a purse. Cute!
Here is the milk carton with some leftover Valentine candy in it:
And the purse, next to one made from cardstock:
I chopped up all the boxes and have enough to make about 60 more…. I better get busy!
If you want to make some yourself, here is what you will need:
- Big Shot die-cutting machine (113439)
- Mini Milk Carton Bigz L Die (117310)
- Petite Purse Bigz L Die (125606)
- Sticky Strip (104294)
- In Color Boutique Details (130938)
You can shop for these supplies and so much more at my Stampin’ Up! store.
I have some of those plastic boxes I kept when I got new blinds…..from Penney’s. Thanks for the ideas. I have some friends that will love this for their little girls. Cool ideas. And I can do something with the plastic as well!!!
