Last week's Christmas class focused on gift boxes and tags and I was busy for days beforehand creating samples to inspire my ladies. Here are the boxes we made in class: This star box is a template from Lauren Meader and is very simple to put together. I decorated by stamping in crumb cake ink using Bells and Boughs and added a tulle bow and poinsettia with pearls. Our next treat was a hexagon box made from the mini milk carton die - you've seen plenty of these before. As I used some "bauble" papers (Snow Festival dsp), I added a bauble shaped tag to match. And lastly a simple fancy favour box, stamped with snowflakes and decorated with tulle, chunky glitter, snowflake (snow flurry die) and sentiment from More Merry Messages. Other boxes I had for display: Fancy Favour box again, doubled this time, plus a box made from four scallop envelopes. SU's kraft gift boxes. The gingerbread paper is non SU but so adorable I couldn't resist! Some simple candy wrappers. A petal cone hanging decoration plus elongated candy wrapper. I had also prepared a smattering of tags to give my ladies some ideas and then I gave them free run with dies, papers, ribbon, stamps, punches and more! It was bedlam there for a while, lol!!! It has been fun doing Christmas things - homemade items always add that extra special personal touch! Thanks for calling in. Cheers Kez
