Christmas Treat Boxes

I can't believe that another year is nearly over and I've been busy making Christmas Treat Boxes ready for meeting up with girlfriends for our Christmas get together.

 

There is space in the body and the head for treats

#124 - Anything Goes

This time it is my turn to host the challenge at CD Sunday Plus.

Here is my card.   

The backing paper is from Vintage Christmas CD by Crafter's Companion and the main image is from Enchanted Christmas CD by Joanna Sheen. This lovely image of the snow people is one of my favourites from this CD.  

The ivy leaves are from Crafter's Companion.

The greeting is from Hunkydory's 'Just my Type Christmas Sentiment Strip Pad'.

The greeting reminded me of this song - 

'Baby It's Cold Outside'

#123 - Anything Goes

It's Margaret's turn to host the challenge this fortnight at CD Sunday Plus.

I used two matching backing papers from the Magical Christmas Moments CD by Cupcake Crafting and a robin from the Fledglings die set by two Red Robins along with the corresponding download. 

The two holly circle dies are by Sweet Dixie from the Circular Holly Frame Set. I added flat backed beads by Kort and Godt to the inner frame. I bought these beads from Joanna Sheene's website many years ago and they come in handy to add small details. 

The Merry Christmas die is by Gemini Expressions from Crafter's Companion. 

I had some papers left over so decided to decorate the back of the card as well.

Pumpkin Treats

 I've had my knitting needles out recently to make a few of these beauties in time for Halloween.

It is just the right size to fit a Chocolate Orange. 

Happy Halloween!

Halloween Treat Boxes

No tricks, only Treats! 

I've been busy making a batch of these treat boxes ready for meeting up with girlfriends. 

I cut the shape for the top of the box out using double sided sticky sheets and then stuck the 'trick or treat' message over the top and used gilding flakes to make the background. I then peeled off the other side of the sticky sheet and attached it to the box lid. 

There are lots of extra embellishments to add to the boxes in this Tonic die set and I chose the spider's web ones for the outside of my boxes. 

These boxes go together beautifully and the lids once fully assembled fit perfectly. 

Here is one showing the contents. I managed to get 6 Maltesers chocolates and a chocolate eyeball in each one. 

#122 - Anything Goes

It's Jo's turn to host the challenge this fortnight at CD Sunday Plus.

Here is my 8" x 8" card.   

I made this card using an image and backing paper from a download by Magik Graphics called 'An Unkindness of Ravens'. This folder is called Raven Witch. 

The pumpkin dies are from Crafter's Companion. 

The spider's web is also from Crafter's Companion - Halloween Treat Boxes die set.

#121 - Anything Goes

It's Pamela's turn to host the challenge this fortnight at CD Sunday Plus.

Here is my 8" x 8" card.   

I made this card using backing paper from a download by LOTV (Lily of the Valley) called 'Spooky Girl'. I printed it onto white pearlised paper with a shimmer of gold. 

The die set used to create the witch's hat is called 'Wicked Witch' by Crafter's Companion and the sentiment is a Tonic die. 

This is the back of the card.
