Here is what I did with my MYSTERY BOX…

I began with an idea of creating a little box that my son could have in the back seat of the Jeep that he could have a few car type games in. So this is what I came up with....

Car Fun Box

TOP

Stamp sets used: Graphic Borders, Splash Me a Little! alphabets, Neighborhoods)

FRONT

Stamp sets used: Graphic Borders, Passport to Adventure, Mini Pennants)

BACK

Stamp sets used: Graphic Borders, Passport to Adventure, Road Trip

Then once my box was decorated, I decided to create a few things to put inside.

First I came up with a fun magnetic alphabet board. I took piece of adhesive magnetic paper and applied a sheet of copy paper to its sticky side. Then I stamped the checkerboard edges using the Graphic Borders stamp set. I ten stamped all of my alphabets from the Royal Flush alphabet set. I made duplicates of some of the vowels and some of the more common other letters like "S" & "T".


Next I wanted to come up with a "car bingo" concept so I designed a VERY SIMPLE bingo card that would fit inside my box. "Spencer" is my son's name so that's why it says "Spencer's Car Bingo" on it.

Stamp sets used: She Says - He Says, Passport to Adventure, Itty Bitties, Abundant Blossoms, Royal Flush alphabets, Letterboxes alphabets, Symbols.

This is where you get to interpret the blocks. Here's just a few ideas for the card above...

• K - find something that begins with "K"
• 3 cars - find 3 of something
• cone - find something you can eat
• leaf - find something green
• girl - find a woman or girl
• J - find something that starts "J"
• hearts - find a heart shape
• phone - find a phone
  

Here's a second bingo card...

Stamp sets used: She Says - He Says, Passport to Adventure, Itty Bitties, Abundant Blossoms, BOO!, Letterboxes alphabets, No Place Like Home, Symbols.

Here's how I might interpret this next card...

• cat - find some kind of animal
• coffee - find something you drink
• house - find a white house
• boat - find something that floats
• leaf - find something that grows
• hearts - find 3 of something the same
• 2 girls - find 2 girls together
• W - find something that starts with "W"
