Christmas Box


Well it was my turn over at the Christmas Card Club
to set the challenge .........
My teamies on Heartfelt Creations say 
I like my boxes ....... well guess what they are right !! hehe !!
So my challenge had to be make anything other than a card !
And of course I had to make a box !!

Here it is open .........


This is one of my flip over boxes,
I have a tutorial HERE
Check it out its really easy to make !


I got one of my snowflake tree decs on it !!
You can just see it on the top left !!

Papers are Nitwits, image LOTV, Spellbinder Lacey square die,
Die'sire Holly die and poinsettias are from the Bebunni CD.
I chose this image as it has present on it and being a box for a present ........
I thought I would make it so it matched the last Christmas card 
I made for the Christmas card challenge.
It sort of goes ........... 


I'd like to thank everyone for voting over at Heartfelt Creations
for the DT, if you haven't yet voted, obviously I'd love you to vote for me........
Its a hard ask as the team has become such good friends.

Oh and I made a Cracker !!
As I was tidying away I found some Cracker die cuts in my stash.
So I thought I would decorate it up
as I had left overs from my box !


I thought I would pop a pair of ear-rings 
in it for Caitlyn on the tree.

Happy crafting !!
Hope your all having a great weekend.
We are busy busy getting things sorted for
getting married on Saturday !!!
WOW its nearly here !!!
Right better go as I have a conservatory to scrub !

  1. Liz, what a lovely trio of projects. I MUST have a go at doing the box, it is really lovely. How you have time to do all of your crafting and keep your blog going when you are so close to your wedding day I don't know! Hope the conservatory is gleaming by now and that you get some time to relax. Pat x

  2. Thank you sooooo much for this challenge theme Lizzie - I totally enjoyed doing something other than a card for once and I am pleased with my little, albeit simple, box. I love how you have made your box, it looks as if you like poinsettias as much as I do - lol!! Enjoy your wedding to Prince Charming - I have my fingers crossed for good weather.

    Hugs to you Sue Pxxx

  6. Love the style of your gorgeous box. That fold over lid is so pretty. Well done you for matching it to your last card. Your flower looks amazing.
    The Christmas cracker looks beautiful. I have never tried these but want to now! Great idea for a bit of jewelry!
    Sorry I am late...but will finish up and post soon as I can manage the stairs. Hopefully later today if the ice does it's magic!

    1. It's mega easy honest! You could even use a recycled box in the middle and make the fold around it!
