I ahve become addicted to Pinterest and found this http://atsecondstreet.blogspot.com/2010/03/dino-land-suitcase-and-tutorial.html She gives a great tutorial! I thought it would be PERFECT for Bryan who had gotten a great T-Rex for his birthday a few weeks ago. So I decided to tackle it. I really didn't know if I could pull it off. WALLA!!! It worked fabulously, if I do say so myself. I used a reddish brown primer so mine is more of a red than hers but I like it!! I have discovered that the "great stuff" insulation foam stuff is incredible! Fun to work with but also infuriating at the same time. Yes, that CAN happen. It puffs up when you walk away and when you come back your case won't close. So, I had to do a lot of trimming. I made TWO of these. One is for a white elephant gift. The party I am going to isn't the "normal" gag gifts so I thought I would go with the envy gift this year. Or so I think. Haha. Everyone has kids or grandkids,
