Cigar box IV



This is actually the first box I made.  I wasn't sure what I was doing.  But I got it done.  The one with the blue on it was for a gift for my SS at Christmas.  The second box was for my daughter in law. 

Cigar box III


This is the first cigar box I made after I knew what I was doing.  This is the one that I made when I took a class at Queens Ink.  The knob is made out of buttons.  The feet are from Ranger.  Gotta love those cigar boxes.

Cigar box II



This box went to my sister, Nina, in Maine.  The papers on this box is from Simple Stories.  Gotta love their papers.

Like everyone else I stamp with I have caught the bug to make decorative cigar boxes.  This box went to my nephew in Washington state.  I made a little paperbag album to put inside to hold the pictures that we took when he came to visit the family in Massachusetts.  Sure hope he likes it.  I was really happy with the way it came out.

Copic Certified

I finally got my copic certification "Yipee, for me"  I have been wanting to do this for so long.  I got the standard certification and now can't wait to get the Intermediate one.  Here is a picture of me and the girls at York Pa where we took the class.  Our instructor was Marianne Walker.  We couldn't have asked for a better person to teach our class.  Check out her site at http://ilikemarkers.blogspot.com
