Christmas Book Boxes

I will be sorry to part with this box, I enjoyed doing it. I have made 3 in all one is a little girls one, when I have finished it I will post it on the blog.

I used 12x12 white cardstock and scored at 7.5 cm all the way around the card that I was using for the base and then for the lid scored at 7.3 cm all the way around.

I then made the cardstock into boxes and covered.

Tim Holtz Tattered Flowers.
Cheery Lynn - Holly Corner die
Cheery Lynn - Lace Light Border die
Papers - First Edition Paper Pad - Christmas Village

Poinsettia Hanging Card

This idea was from a Craft Stall at Alexandra Palace in September.  I thought that it was a great keepsake for people that you don't give a gift to but send a card.  I made a box with a simple card in it and decorated the box then put in the hanging decoration.
