Hey It’s a blog hop! Creations By AR is releasing some new templates & we’re launching them with a Father’s Day Blog Hop.

What do you win at this hop? One of two new templates

COMFY SOFA GIFT BOX

PAPA’S TRUNK

Here’s what I made with the COMFY SOFA GIFT BOX template:

This template, can be converted into a sofa/chesterfield/couch or just the chair.

The chair has a compartment that pulls out.

For a gift box.  I thought what might be a good gift for the gadgety dad, is a USB stick with a photo slide show of favourite photos for his computer screen saver.

Oh yes, & don’t forget the remote on the chair.

The second template I made was:  PAPA’S TRUNK

The SVG, is of course, scalable.  So I brought mine down to 50% of actual size.

There’s a little paper lock included in the template.

That is used as a label here.

I made mine from white CS & then put an embossing folder to get the raised metal impression, and then dragged silver ink pads over it.

Here’s the back … I used tiny eyelets to hold the paper hinges.

I had these tiny tools from the dollar store … totally worked for this “Delta Tool Box Truck Box” project.

Wee hammer.

And that’s it!

What you need to know …

Have fun on the hop & thanks again to Adela for organizing the Father’s Day Blog Hop & the beautiful Template giveaways.

So, I’m hoping I make the deadline for this fun colour challenge.  It’s from Embellish magazine.  (Thanks Tina, for giving a heads up to this challenge!)  If not, I did have fun with the challenge & that’s the point, no?  I really loved the valise chesterfield inspiration.  Thought is would look fabulous in my front room.  But I have a feeling DH wouldn’t really go for it & the dog might eat it.  So for now, I’ll turn it into a card:

I got the idea for the Chesterfield/Sofa Chair from mlcdesign, although I like theirs better … maybe because of the tiny glasses they used.
