Another Superbird Project


Here's a shoe box I altered as a storage box for my son's cars. He has so many cars and they are always lost at the bottom of the toy box so having them in their own box shall hopefully prevent him from being tempted to upset the whole toy box to find one car, lol. I used the fabulous Superbird Race Car Digital image from Sunshine Stamps and I made him very large for the top of the box, which I coloured in with Copic Markers, and then I printed several smaller images which my son coloured in and mounted them all around the box. For the background paper I just ran my tire tred wheel from Stampin Up! accross white paper and used that to wrap the box. This is my first time trying something like this so it's not super fancy, but I figured for a little boy to store his cars in, it'll work just fine :)

This is GRREAT! Your son is a lucky young man to have a Mum that understands the importance of his collection. I'm still a little boy inside and I can tell you ... this is terrific. I have many more car stamps coming in the muscle car lineup. All will be recognizable by car buffs...I hope.

Oh what a cute box! The tire treads are cool and I like that your son colored some of the cars too. Kids are so much better about picking up if they have a specific place for stuff.

Oh Jenny, what a great box! I love how you used the tire tred stamp too.
