Scallop milk carton treat box
First up, a simple milk carton-like box - an impromptu extra project made at my Feb Occasions Catalogue launch class.
I'd decided to focus on 2
card projects at the class, however, on the morning of the
class, I couldn't resist using the punch too so I quickly cut the pieces to
make the box. I used the same colours & stamps as the hexagon hive card I shared yesterday.
The box is essentially a basic open topped box (made in crisp cantaloupe) with 2 scored scallop tags attached to the front & back & a strip of 'I am me' dsp around it. It is approx 5 x 5 x 10cm (2 x 2 x 4 inches) & can be very easily dressed up or themed to suit any occasion. It would be a perfect size to hold a hollow egg or little bag of eggs for Easter, or even a non-chocolate gift. Might just do that...with chocolate of course :-)
Tag Topper Thank you Treats
That's all from me today, but before I go, I'd like to say a huge thanks to everyone who has left such lovely comments lately or pinned my projects. I am so inspired by the projects I see so many people share so freely & it's really nice to feel I can contribute to that in my own small way. I'll be back with my last Feb class project next time. Until then, thanks again for visiting & commenting & pinning. I really appreciate you.
Inky wishes, Di
