Welcome to our first Club Scrap monthly blog hop! Fifteen Club Scrap fans (including me) have joined crafting forces to post something made with the current Club Scrap kit. For this month I am posting yet another version of the February Art On A String Kit, so some of the parts and pieces from my own stash are used to finish off this project. I had so much fun making the other versions that I already posted on my blog earlier this week that I had to make just one more!
Different from the others I made earlier in the week, I simply wrapped this one with black text-weight paper and mounted a family photo on the front. I used the lid pull hardware included in the kit with ribbon from my own stash.
I never get tired of lifting the lid to see what's suspended inside. The kit comes complete with vintage hot air balloon prints for hanging from the lid (so perfect), but this is my own twist with the photo and rubber stamped quotes from the Navajo Collection.
There is room for a different photo on the other side. The thread suspended from the lid gets sandwiched between symmetrical photos and stamped panels.
Quick, enjoy the last couple days of February while you still can!

Kay, I am always awed by your creativity! Such a beautiful project, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWowzers...I just love this variation, too! So creative...I can't wait to browse through all of your versions to decide which way I want to go with mine (or maybe I'll get more and CASE them all!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful box this is, Kay! You come up with the coolest projects that I just need to copy. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteKay, I really never ever get tired of your awesome creations! This project is certainly no exception.
ReplyDeleteI love how you created the handle with ribbon! Great job!
Kay,
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfectly lovely way to show such wonderful pictures of your family. It is just darling, love it!

This is a spectacular project - and today's version is my favorite of all of the ones you have posted so far. Do you shoot your photos in black and white or use a photo editor? The effect is beautiful and timeless.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the great comment, you are so kind. My black & white pics are just created in a photo editor, or even just on the store's photo website when I go to get an order processed, I simply go the easy route there.
DeleteThis is, by far, my favorite of all the things in this hop. Just exceptional. I cannot wait to make my own!!! Thank you for developing such an outstanding project.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the elegant project!
ReplyDeleteLove it - super project and I'm sure will be cherished for a long time to come!
ReplyDeleteAlways love seeing your variations of a project - so imaginative!
ReplyDeleteThese boxes are so cute. I love every permutation that you've done.
ReplyDeleteYOu are my craft idol..you never ever ever dissapoint.
ReplyDeleteAs always, just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great project. I love all your versions but this one is my favorite. It would make such special and cherished gifts for loved ones.
ReplyDeleteKay Kay Kay - your projects are always so amazing - the black and white photos are so stunning and gorgeous - love all of your takes on this project, can't wait to work on mine...
ReplyDeleteThe boxes are very cool. I love that you are going to do a monthly bloghop. I need inspiration when my kits come!
ReplyDeleteDelightful Kay:)
ReplyDeleteSo very creative! You're projects are always wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHow fabulous- gotta try to make one of these! Love you blog- will be back!
ReplyDeleteas always, fabulous project Kay!
ReplyDeleteI've been enjoying your "story box" projects. What a great interactive keepsake that you can individualize perfectly for the recipient. Nice work, as always!
ReplyDeleteKay, I've loved each of these little box projects. This is probably my favorite. Would make a great gift.
ReplyDeleteAnother clever way of using your little box project. I just ordered another two kits :) Love the ideas.
ReplyDeleteLove this project! The handle is perfect!
ReplyDeleteSuch a adorable project
ReplyDeleteanother amazing project from you Kay. I really like the butterfly one you did on previous post too. Definitely will be copying :)
ReplyDeleteWow what a great project. I love the classy look with the black!
ReplyDeleteIt's great! I really love to see how you make the same project in so many different ways.
ReplyDeleteOh, Kay, You are a fount of incredible inspiration! I think this box looks so impressive(I'll bet the kit goes together a smooth as butter) I have another idea for the paper squares. How about using clear plastic sleeves instead of paper squares so you can change the picture and sayings at will. The opening on the sleeves would be on the side not the top. I think I'll try it. Thanx
ReplyDeleteOh wow Julie, great idea! Super clever! Thanks for mentioning it.
DeleteAmazing, as usual, Kay!
ReplyDeleteI love the February on a string - I need to have a bunch done for next Christmas! Thanks! Melanie
ReplyDeleteKay, I have loved every single version of your Art on a String creations, but this one tops the list. STUNNING!
