This thing is tiny. It could hold a little gift like jewelry.
I used the Wrap it Up Cricut Cartridge to cut it out.
To make the snowflake stand out I used some Stickles in Waterfall. I LOVE the look of colored Stickles on white paper like that to create another color without having to add another layer of paper.
For the sides I started off using a border punch by Martha Stewart called Doily Lace on some shimmery blue cardstock. Then I wrapped it around the box.
I used some pink ribbon that has a cool crinkled texture over the blue cardstock.
On top of that I added some lavender ribbon with little snowflakes on it.
I'm really happy with how this came out and it was pretty quick to put together. The downside is after I did all this to the box I realized I made it pretty stinkin hard to open! *LOL* I will manage to slip a gift inside it, but it may get ruined the second the person opens it.
Hugs to all! I miss everyone! I haven't been checking out my favorite blogs lately and I'd love to catch up with ya'll soon :)
That's so adorable, Amber! Love all the pretty ribbons. I haven't been able to visit too much either lately. It's just such a busy time of year for everyone! Wishing you and your family a very happy holiday!!--Pat N.
