I found a tutorial on making a chest online at ehow.com and took a look at the photo and made just a front with my cardstock. I had to set my sewing machine somewhere and thought this was perfect. I made a 'fabric' cloth for the top of the chest by cutting the shape and embossing. The chest was distressed for an old look. My sentiment was hand cut.

Recipe:
Stamps-I'm in Stitches
Memento Tuxedo Black, Stampabilities white
Paper: MFP Old World Gold, Bo Bunny Press-Velvet Floral dp, The Paper Studio brads for the chest

I also made this extra card for the blog hop using this same set. I went vintage with my card, something I don't do a lot. And, I had fun with it.

I have collected a few scissors over the years and my sis made me a beautiful  box that had some gorgeous gold metallic stitching on the scissors at the top of the box. That was for keeping my scissors inside. It was on my blog quite a while back. So, this set is really a lovely one for me.
