Distress Inks Storage Update...

Thanks to all those who left me comments on my Distress Ink Storage, and also for the idea to put the colours onto the ink pads....as you can see now that I have finished it.....I used your suggestion. I have yet to add a handle, but I need to find the right one before I go any further. Here is a picture of the Box, with the acetate lid in place.
Next is with the acetate cover removed.
And finally one of the back with all the 7Gypsies Gaffer Tape on all the edges for protection.

I have even added silver brads to the bottom so that it sits ever so slightly off the surface...for protection. I am really please with the results, and will be adding some Gorjuss images as soon as the Sugar Nellie stamps are available, seeing as how it was the slightly dark and gothic feel of the Gorjuss Girls that was the inspiration for the decoration of this box.

The gothic feel has encouraged me to drag out my Stampotique "Daniel Torrente" stamps to play with...they are always good for cards for teenagers as they are not so cute and are definately more edgy.
