We are giving away an amazing prize package from the myStamp BOX shop for our event this weekend, and all you have to do is COMMENT along your journey to WIN.

We have given three of our lovely designers a mystery prize box, and you could WIN the prize inside just by leaving a COMMENT on EVERY designer’s blog. Our Mystery Box Hop winner will be announced on the myStamp BOX blog on Monday so all comments are due by Sunday June 26th at 11:59pm EST. Good Luck!

And here is what I did with my MYSTERY BOX.

Stamps used: Abundant Blossoms, A Flower For You, Bits and Pieces

I loved the original kraft color, so I decided to stamp bold flowers in black and color away! The surface of the box is perfect for colored pencils, and I had a great time blending colors. I finished each flower off with a gemstone center or jeweled brad by Karen Foster Design.


The peekaboo window in the lid was covered with the recycled, clear plastic sheet that myStamp BOX stamps come on in the package...so my project is even green! Now I have a cute box ready for any type of small gift.

Now it’s time to HOP along and find out what the next talented designer has created with her MYSTERY BOX. Your next designer is Agata. Don’t forget to leave a comment below for a chance to WIN one of our MYSTERY BOX giveaways! Happy hopping!
