Snowflower Box 2011

.. and that's what I call this little favour / gift box, a cross between a snowflake and a flower.  Had the template for this box a while, can't remember where I found the measurements, but its a normal size rectangle box with a lid which opens on the top, so easy enough to make up..
This is what is looks like completed - we had loads of fun making this last Saturday in the workshop and if anyone makes any more with different colours please let me know and I can post your work and examples here, if you want to share..


For the decoration I used:
Spellbinders Snowflake die, 
EK success Flower punch, 
Quickutz snowflake 12'' die cut down to only use three of the flakes on the die, 
ribbon 
Magnolia Doo Hickey leaf die
and a simple punched border,
..oh and one pearl with a bit of white acrylic paint (there's a pattern forming here!)

 a close - up of the front of the box...


big enough to fit some home made chocolates (Charmaine!!..........) or some little bath fizzers or any other homemade gifts you might fancy and want to make for someone special!

Will be back with another Lily of the Valley easel card using flowers and berries when I have taken the photos..
