Market Street Sneak Peak Day #3!

Only one more day before the full Market Street Stamp August release is revealed. For all the details, check the Market Street blog!  Today I am sharing my favorite set from the release — a real must-have if you ask me! :-) 

The stamp set is called "For all it's worth," and it features 15 of the most versatile stamps ever!
I decided to combine almost all of them to make a custom recipe box gift. 
This would be a perfect gift for a bridal shower, birthday, or just a quick thinking of you present for someone special!  If I had to pick two favorite stamps from this set it would have to be the scalloped circle stamps.  The possibilities are endless.

I had to photograph these at night (which I never do!) So, the pictures aren't my favorite, but I thought I'd share all of them with you so you can see everything close up!



The recipe box was inspired by my husband's Aunt.  She was a papercrafter extraordinaire and I am inspired by her memory every day.  Although she passed away a few years ago, I have so many of her cards and other creations in my craft room.  One of her gifts was a Christmas recipe box.  I decided to take it apart to use as the template for my own! I'm sure she would be happy to see her projects being used over again.

It was really easy to make. A couple of quick scores and some Scor tape and it was all put together!

I also got to hammer in some eyelets which is pretty rockin'.

 That's it for today folks!  Don't forget to leave a comment below to win a free Market Street Set!
