Good morning everyone. Welcome to another great JustRite blog hop. JustRite will be having daily blog hops starting today and going through to Thursday - the focus will be on their new background stamps. These stamps are awesome - now you don't need to worry about finding the "right" paper - just make your own with JustRite Background Stamps!
Today I decided to create a cute little keepsake box to hold some sand and seashells that I brought home from my honeymoon in Aruba. I got married in 1997 but still hadn't done anything with these yet - is that called "procrastination"!!
My box is made with acetate, scored at 2 1/4" for each side. For the top and bottom edges I used the border stamp included in Cast All Your Cares, colored with Copics and diecut with the matching Spellbinders Classic Bracket Edgeabilities.
For the background I stamped the Harlequin Script Background stamp once and placed it inside the box.
When JustRite came out with the set "Oceanside Oval Medallion Labels" I knew that I wanted to use the lighthouse image. While my husband and I were in Aruba we spent a day visiting an area that had a beautiful lighthouse. JustRite also has some custom dies that are a perfect match to Oceanside Oval Medallion Labels which makes creating so much easier and faster - no more hand-cutting.
Here is a look at all the stamps used to create my cute little keepsake box
Here are the other JustRite designers also showing some great projects today using JustRite stamps

Had to chuckle when reading your story! LOL! This is such a great idea! We 're going to a beach soon so I might have to use your project as an inspiration! TFS! Have a great Sunday!
AWESOME keepsake box, Angela!!! I'm the 'queen' of procrastination myself, so I totally understand! What a lovely keepsake you now have of your beautiful honeymoon trip. These JR stamps were PERFECT!!!
