I didn't alter this as it was always a pencil box but this was the end result after messing with things

That's great, Ruth. Mr Green

Smashing if you use it all the time and it's sitting on your desk.

Maria, you can buy glitter letters, but it's just as easy to make your own. Chipboard alpha or hand cut. Cover with Diamond Glaze and sprinkle glitter on. Job done. Very Happy

The letters in this instance are American thickers. I hate handling glitter but this stuff stays quite well stuck!

Ruth, I've seen loads of American Thickers in the mags in all sorts of styles. Where do you go for yours and are they any different from any other chipboard alpha?
