Christmas Gift Boxes

I always make little boxes with chocs inside for girlfriends when we meet up, especially at Christmas. 

Here are this year's Christmas collection.

These are for childhood friends.

And these are for previous work colleagues. We now call ourselves 'The Kitchen Club'.

 

Last but by no means least is our Christmas trip to Plumpton Racecourse.

I used a Tonic die for the cracker shape and papers from Crafter's Companion to decorate. The white pointsettias are a Tattered Lace die and the ivy leaves I've had in a box for a very, very long time. 

I also made a little card to celebrate the day using Co-pilot. Inside it reads Wishing you a Very Merry Plumpton.

#172 - Anything Goes

Here is my card.   

I designed and created this image using Co-pilot. It is a special card for my hairdresser. I think it looks quite like him so I hope he likes it. Lol.

#171 - Anything Goes

Jo is our host at CD Sunday Plus challenge this time. 

Here is my card.   

I used the House Mouse Decoupage CD from Joanna Sheen for the main image of this card for a friend's golden wedding anniversary.  

I made a card base using two sheets of A4 cut to  22cm x 6". (Inches and cms! but it worked better that way for me). I made a score line at 1 1/4" on the top piece of card for the opening. I punched three holes down the left hand side at 1", 3" and 5" to thread the ribbon through and tie in a bow.

#170 - Anything Goes

Meg is hosting at CD Sunday Plus this fortnight. 

Here is my card.   

The main image and backing papers are from British Wildlife Vol III CD with artwork by Pollyanmna Pickering and produced by Creative Crafting World.

The die cut acorns are from Carnation Crafts using their downloadable vignettes.

I cut the sentiment four times and layered it up to make it stand up from the card. I also layered the acorns but not quite so much.
