makeover for my green craft challenge! I tore out all the old fabric from the inside...then on to refinishing it like I had seen in a magazine several years ago.
I used scrapbook paper for the lining and rick rack and ribbon to edge it. Then added all kinds of small boxes and holders, including a small clipboard that I covered with paper also. There is a scissor holder, tag pockets, rolled papers, embellishments, buttons and a larger box to hold photos.
Once the lid is shut you have a Paper Craft Carrying Case that you can take with you anywhere and look properly vintage at the same time:)

Here are some details inside and on the handle. Because I wanted it to be reusable, I did black and white with green accents. All the papers, buttons and embellishments are in some shade of green or black and white. I'm not sure if this will be a gift or a sale item...I was going to do a give away but realized the shipping could cost me a lot more than the item total, so I'll do a giveaway another time!
