Finally! Another post- the one I promised!

Hello Fellow Stampers!

Before I post these pics. of my newest project I'll explain what the picture is on my home page banner! It is a shot of the ceiling at the Salt Lake Palace! I went there for Convention 2008 recently and had a blast! For right now I've decided to go with a neutral colored banner and site so that I can determine how well my uploaded photos will contrast to the rest of the site. Hope that makes sense! Now, on to the show! Here it is:

Is this not the most stinkin' cute thing you've ever seen!?!? (Just try to overlook any flaws you might find;)) I made this expandable accordian file using the instructions from an episode on TV Weekly-http://sbl.tvweekly.com/thisweek.php. I first saw an example of Renee's version on her blog-Stamping for Sanity (address to the left under Blogs I Cruise) and her's was sooooo pretty. I just knew I had to make my own but in a different color/pattern scheme. I tried to get ALL of the new In-Colors incorporated (it's missing Pink Pirouette but I'm adding P.P. tabs to the files inside and will post another pic. when I am done) and also use the new Hidden Garden Bulk rub-ons. I added a bookboard covered with cardstock panel on the front with a velcro closure.
Now my son wants one (of course, it'll probably have to be a "camo" theme) and so does my daughter!

Ingredients: Cardstock-Riding Hood Red, Tangerine Tango,Pacific Point, Kiwi Kiss, Baja breeze and Whiper White
(all cardstock textured except Whisper White)
Ink- Baja Breeze
Stamp Set- Eastern Blooms
Accessories- Hidden Garden Bulk Rub-Ons, On Board Book Board, Sticky-Strip
ALL SUPPLIES STAMPIN' UP! except for Mod-Podge (used as the adhesive to apply paper to board)

You could use this to file a variety of things. I am putting pink labels on mine and haven't decided what to file in it yet! Please enjoy! And leave me a comment if you want more info! (Or just to say what you think about this project!). Have an awesome day!
