October Stamping Project - Take Your Pick Tool Sipcase

October's project is a little different! It's easy to forget that papercraft is more than just cards :)

I learned from one of my team mates that it is totally a thing to make a box for your Take Your Pick Tool as the original box is quite flimsy. You can find the instructions on Old Stables Crafts. I took a different approach and made a slipcase for the box.

This is where the minute measurements of the Simply Scored board really shined.

I measured a sheet of Berry Burst cardstock against the box and carefully scored everywhere I wanted a fold. I wasn't sure how much paper I would need, so I trimmed the excess off.

Then, for the top, I personalized it with a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Petal Palette stamp set and 2017-2019 In-Color inks. Admittedly I printed out my name because it was too intimidating to stamp it out!




As for the Take Your Pick Tool itself, I love it. I love that the spatula can help you pop up any whoopsies that have been stuck down. The putty tips take the frustration out of affixing small details and it's easier to hold the bigger stylus than the one that comes with the Simply Scored board.
