I absolutely and completely love the school supply aisles this time of the year! If I could, I would buy every single kind of pen, marker and glue. I get giddy over the crayons and erasers and don't even get me started on the spiral notebooks and writing pads. I've been known to buy these items...just because. Although, as a child I remember getting a sinking feeling when I would see the first "back to school" commercials on TV, I still LOVED going shopping for my new pencils, folders and lunch box. Suddenly I would become excited!
So for the occasion, here's a pencil box I made. I used this adorable cutting template from The Cutting Cafe'. The box will hold 18 brand new pencils! The box was so easy peasy and quick to make. The "September" calendar and "1st day of school" is a printable stamp from The Cutting Cafe' as well.
**Post Update!!!** Regina, the unbelievable designer and owner of The Cutting Cafe', is generously giving away this darling Pencil Box cutting template. All you need to do is leave me a comment on this post by midnight EST Saturday and I'll randomly pick a winner! I'll announce the winner sometime on Sunday. How easy is that? Good luck!!
Supplies: Pencil box template & Printable stamps - The Cutting Cafe'; Pattern papers - Cosmo Cricket; Ribbon - Michael's; Jewels - K&Co.; Chipboard - Basic Grey; Sticker - October Afternoon; Name Strip - own supply
