WT715 ~ Creative Containers (11/22/2018)

[Covington Crafter]

Carla here with this week's Ways To Use It challenge.

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you in the States! Happy Thursday to our friends in the rest of the world!

Thanksgiving is all about gratitude, so first I want to say how grateful I am for this fabulous crafting community and all the people who make it possible. The staff, moderators, challenge hostesses and all of the members who inspire and support each other. Hugs to you all!!

Thanksgiving means lots of food and leftovers. You have to store those leftovers in something, so show me some Creative Containers! Stamp a box, a bucket, a jar, a vase, you get the idea. Or if you've got the time, you could use one of the SCS Tutorials and make a box, a bag or a case. And enjoy some dessert if you use leftovers in your creation. I've got both apple and pumpkin pie. Would you like that with whipped cream or ice cream. ;)

When you've finished, upload your card or container with the keyword WT715 and then come back and share a link here - that makes it easy for people to find your card. It's especially appreciated by the hostesses!!

If you're not sure how to add a link, here's how:
1. Open 2 windows or tabs: one for your card in the gallery, and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.

Here's the link for our WT715 gallery. Take a look and spread some love around by leaving comments for your fellow crafters!

Thank you, Cathy, Lisa and Sabrina for the fabulous samples! Looks like we're all getting some gifts ready.

Here's a link to my Stationery Box for a Friend.

Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating today. An unexpected overtime day in work for me = a little extra money to spend in the sales :mrgreen:.

Hmmm, well you do have me thinking ( this could take a long while and may not move out of the thinking stage Carla)


Happy Thanksgiving ladies!

[Crafty Julia]

used some fussy cut gingerbread men and a ribbon border for my gift bag, adding some coloring and a red striped tie at the top. Here's Sweet holiday

I don't have any need for containers or boxes, but I do need more Christmas cards for my fundraiser! Here's a cat contained in a box:

Thankful for the SCS community!

[JBgreendawn]

I think this is maybe not so creative but, it is something I would not normally have done.


( I almost always make my pockets wallpapered with printed paper to use it up so, texturing it and inking it is something different for me)


thanks for this challenge Carla & tfl.
