12 Weeks of Christmas Crafting - Week 5

Well, I have to apologize.  I am late getting this post on my blog - so sorry!!  Okay last week's project is a little box made with the Big Shot. It is really easy and really cute!  Just use the Bitty Box & Envelope die (115967 $42.95) and run a piece of pink pirouette paper through it.  Once you have your little box just fold it along the score lines and then add a piece of the Candy Cane Christmas paper (120809 $11.95) which coordinates perfectly to the top of the box.  This piece needs to be 2 1/4" square.  Then punch out a real red piece using the wonderful XL Decorative Label punch (120907 $16.95).  Then stamp an ornament in baja breeze ink onto whisper white paper using the image from Tags Til Christmas stamp set (120847 wood mount/121169 clear mount $30.95/$22.95) then punch it out using the ornament punch (119847 $16.95).  Add a red glimmer brad in the middle of the punched ornament.  Layer your pieces on the top of the box and you have a great little gift box for Christmas in some untraditional Christmas colors.  Here is the picture of the project.  You can order the supplies for this project at my online store
