I have all this stuff from Stampin’ Up and for the most part
I have found homes for everything however I have never been happy about the ink
pad’s living space. Hard to get at, when I remove one I end up juggle or most cases
dropping a bunch of them. I have been looking and pricing different ink pad
holders and they cost a fair bit. Although I do need one I would rather spend
my money on more ink and just deal with the leaning tower of inks.
So you can image how happy I was to see a DIY ink holder on
Pintertest. Cheep and sounded (repeat sounded) easy enough to do and to top it
off I get to work on a new project. Before I give you the link with the
instructions I would like to offer a bit of advice.
1) She makes it look super fast and easy. Maybe it was just
me but I found it every time consuming and a lot harder then she made it look,
however I apparently can’t cut straight, use a ruler or line the pieces up
evenly. All of which is a must with this project.
2) She suggests using a pair of tweezers or a screwdriver for removing the foam in the slots I found using a skewer worked really well.
3) I found it easier to put together by adding a little of
extra glue to the selves to help keep them in place until I could place the
sides.
4) When she said she needed help I should have gotten better
help then these guys :o)
Overall it was a long............ but fun process. I am not
thrilled with the final product however it is not the worst thing I have ever
done. Now I have a better idea of how it works my next foam board project
should be better.
And here is my final product
Thanks very much to
