Design Team Member Laura Carson has made a game based on the Dapper Gents Kit, a ATC Size Hidden Drawer Book Box, and the new Retro Signage Chipboard Set.

In addition to the Men in Hats ATCs and Satisfying Text Collage Sheets, Laura created a newIntimates” collage sheet of vintage women from (ridiculous) 1950s bra advertisements for her card game.

In addition to a tutorial on how to make the game, Laura also created images and collage sheets that are free to download so that you can create your own Snarky Ladies Party Game.

What kind of game would you make? Perhaps a game to play with Alice and The Mad Hatter at a tea party? You could use the same ATC Size Hidden Drawer Book Box (that Laura used) to keep all the cards or game pieces together (and to decorate). Or what about using one of the cover images from the Alice Book Covers 2 Collage Sheet for the cover? That collage sheet will also fit the ATC Size Hidden Drawer Book Box (and is included in today’s Giveaway)!

There are a few more collage sheets designed for the ATC Sized Faux Book Box that would also fit (and provide the theme for a game):
Bird Book Covers Collage Sheet
Grimm Covers #3 Collage Sheet
Fairy Tale Book Covers Collage Sheet
– Vintage Christmas Book Covers Collage Sheet
Cookbooks ATC Book Covers Collage Sheet
Jules Verne ATC Book Covers Collage Sheet

Oh, or what about a black cat theme using that cute black cat spinner included in the new Mini Game Spinners Half Sheet (that is also in the new FREE Gift Kit)? A Black Cat Fortune Game with a Halloween theme?
