I simply rollered London Bus onto some Smoothy card and created my little gift box net by stamping/heat embossing images from my Nordic inspired Christmas stamps ECL02.
Then I cut it out, scored and glued to fit it all together.
As
a closure and finishing touch to my project I used the off cuts of my
red card, die cut a couple of little hardware elements using Hardware 1 and then stamped/heat embossed the hardware images from Hot Pick Xtra 05. I
attached 2 of the elements onto the main box to make the closure using
brads and made a little tag with the rest. These were threaded together
using some co-ordinating twine.
Here
is my finished festive gift box all filled with chocolates, a perfect
little gift for anyone. Needless to say the chocolates aren't going to
make it to Christmas, a crafter's perk! I hope I have inspired you to join in with this months challenge.
