Arlington Stamp Day is Tomorrow!…

Posted by Jen | projects | Friday, April 27, 2007

I am so excited that the 2nd Arlington Stamp Day is tomorrow. I have never before participated in a shoebox swap, but am very excited to see what everyone has come up with. I will post my card tomorrow, along with the challenge.
As for today, I am posting the door prize that I am donating. When I first got to thinking about a door prize, I thought that I would make a couple things and bundle them up. Then I got to thinking (oh no, not that again!). We all love to create things on our own, so I put together a bunch of item that can be altered. Some of the stuff that I have included is a Target mailbox, a large composition book, a small composition book, a mini paper mache box, coasters, luggage tag holders, a Godiva coffee drink 4 pk…and a whole bunch more.

Of course I had to put something cute on the front of it. What in the world should I label this? Well, I kinda…no make that I did, snatch up the title “Alter This” from SCS. That pretty much says it all! The letters are cut with the Red Tag Sale Cuttlebug alphabet and the Primas are from Eclectic Paperie.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I know that I am going to have a blast this weekend eating with a bunch of other SCSer’s tonight, then stamping ALL DAY tomorrow.

    Jen! This is a BRILLIANT idea for a door prize! It’s so hard to create things that will appeal to a variety of people…this is a great solution!

    I love the label for your goodies. Something about the colors reminds me of chalk on a chalkboard (the black bg).
