Phase 10 Box

 

Over the summer the kids and I played a lot of games of Phase 10 and the box kind of had seen better days.  When I was looking for fun things to alter one day I picked up this box and it wasn't until I had it sitting on my desk for about a month that I opened it and discovered it would be great for holding the Phase 10 cards.

 

Before adding any papers to the box, I used my Rich Razzleberry blendabilities maker (the middle shade) and colored the wood in the places that I knew would show after I added the papers and card stock.

 

Next, I added some card stock layers and my "phase 10" using the Sweet Taffy designer series paper, Pumpkin Pie, Tempting Turquoise and Rich Razzleberry card stock. 

 

Lastly, I added a couple arrows, one that is a wooden essential element which I also used the blendabilities marker on and the other is a punched piece from the What's Up punch.

 

Finally, I added some 3/4" Chevron ribbon (Pumpkin Pie) and had my new game card holder.

The new alphabet stamp sets in the catalog are photopolymer and there is a nice advantage to using this type of stamp set for letters.  As you can see on the block beside the cards below, you can line them all up on your block at one time and know they will be straight.

 



 

Of course, if you need a letter more than once, you would have to stamp a couple times, but lining the letters up is still not too difficult.

 

I added some images from Work of Art behind the photopolymer stamped image and used Pool Party, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay for those.
