Vintage post box desk tidy.


I have had an amazing Christmas but this morning my fingers were twitiching to get some crafting done so I sat in my office pondering. My eyes fell upon the Precious Parcel card kit sat on my desk and a little smile soon spread on my face. I love anything vintage looking or shabby and this is right up my street.

I wanted something different from this set,  almost wanting to prolong the life of it, and so created myself a pretty desk organiser.

I made up one of the card fronts and used this as a  pretty vintage facade to a simple box. Now it can sit on my desk long after this set is gone. I got the set FREE its one of the many beautiful sets on offer this year as part of Stampin' Up!'s famous Sale-A-Bration. During Sale -A -Bration you can earn this stunning card kit free on a £45 order after postage. Its my favourite ...well for today it is.

I have a quick fun step by step tutorial on my desk tidy so you can create it along with me. I have left measurements below and the list of items used...the set is available from January 3rd 2019 . So why not go grab a brew, get comfy and watch the video.

Happy Stamping xxx Amanda
