This is my second post for today.
It's time for another weekly challenge over at Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenges. Must admit these weeks are flying by.
We have three fab sponsors for this weeks challenge:
My Heart Pieces - 3 digi images of the winners choice
The Paper Shelter - $20 gift certificate
Make It Crafty - $15 gift certificate
I think you will agree some fab prizes. Our challenge theme is everyone's favourite - Anything Goes.
I used a cute Gingerbread image from Make It Crafty for my project.
I decided to do something a bit different for this project so I have made a gift box. This little box was given to me by one of my daughters. She received some jewellery in it for her birthday and didn't want the box so I decided to make it into a little box for gingerbread cookies.
I coloured the image with promarkers and cut it out using one of my dies. I added some glamour dust to the white icing parts and some pearls for the buttons. I topped the box with some christmas paper and edged with gold glitter paper. A couple of flower toppers, a bow and sentiment finished the top.
For the sides I covered it with some brown ribbon (can't really see it very well), put some lace over the top and then decorated with some pearls.
Thanks for popping by and hope you will pop over to Penny's and check out the challenge details and the great creations from the rest of the design team. Looking forward to seeing all your entries.
