Compartment Stepper Box

Hi there,

I'm back with the project to match my recent birthday card.  I have seen the Compartment Stepper Box online for a while now and have been meaning to make one.  Finally I've made one and I'm sure it won't be the last time thanks to the easy to use Simply Scored and Diagonal Plate!

Here's the handy little box below, I'm sure I'll find a good use for it!

Twitterpated Happy Birthday

Hi all,

Hope you've had a nice weekend.  I managed to do some crafting (seems like forever) and so I have a few pictures to share over the next day or two.

The picture below is a card made recently using the lovely Twitterpated DSP.  This paper was in the Summer Mini Catalogue and is now in the Annual Catalogue on P.165.  I've teamed it up with the Fun Flower Die which I have only used the once until now!
