Want to buy this project? Stamp out cancer Auction (secret box canvas)

Posted on 03:00 by Unknown
So I have an evil plan, for a good cause:

breast cancer fundraising.



I'm going to try and entice you guys to buy this thinger

by adding elements to it bit by bit,

and by customizing it to your taste as much as I can.







Today is day 3 of Skipping Stones Design's

second annual Blogs 4 Boobies fundraiser

And it's a series of auctions!



my piece up for auction looks like a card in this photo...



SSD blogs 4 boobies wooden canvas box



...but it's actually a canvas on wood

(renewable resource archival-quality wooden canvas)



SSD b4b stitched embossing squares



It measures 6 inches by 6 inches

and is decorated with:

  • Gesso,
  • Watercolour paper,
  • Heat-embossed vellum
  • Canvas,
  • Hand stitching
  • and heat-embossed pieces on all 4 sides.


I made little wee embossed flowers for it

(from the Stampin' Up Birds & Blooms die).

They have paint-distressed snaps in the centers...

...but left it customizable,

so what would YOU

like to see on this?
:

I'll be making a couple different flower options and

sending them to the winner...

....so if that's you, then

you can choose which flowers you like best

and keep the rest to switch out for a new look to the canvas,

or use however you like.



If you don't like flowers, then

you can put whatever you'd like on it. :o)







If you'd like this wooden canvas

to come live at your house,


You can bid on it in the comments

-just say how much you'd like to donate, and be sure to

leave your email (or send it to me at melstampz@gmail.com)

pretty please.



The bidding ends on the 23rd, so until then

I'll keep adding details to this project to try to entice you. :o)

I know my family is far from being the only one to be

fighting cancer in its different forms,

so thank you in advance for helping however you can!





Please spread the word & please remember

to get screening for early detection,



P.S. This wooden canvas has a secret box compartment hidden

in the back too. (I'll reveal photos of that soon.) :o)
