  3. Great tutorial, nice and simple to make. I was thinking, if you added a couple of millimetres/eighth of an inch onto the base (and lid) it would make a lovely storage box/gift box for ATCs!!

    Will give this a go at some point.

  7. Great tutorial!! Thanks!! While i'm here thought I might pass on a tip...
    When heat embossing, if the powder doesn't stick to the versamarked image because it hasn't been stamped properly then brush off the powder, grab your embossing buddy (puff static away pillow) and rub it over the stamped image. This will get rid of the stickiness, then you can restamp and emboss again!!
    Hope this helps someone!!
