'Anything, but square...and include a tag'
Hmmmm...it certainly had me scratching my head! lol
In the end, I decided to make a little Christmas gift box...it's a pryamid shape...and just perfect for hanging on the Christmas tree. I used this freebie template from Pink Petticoat, printed on to the reverse of a piece of paper from the My Mind's Eye 'Signature Christmas - Festive' collection. After cutting out the template, I punched a hole in each of the 'points', and threaded some ribbon through to close the box. For my tag, I've used a cute little Penny Black bear called 'Candle-lit Night', which I've watercoloured, then cut out with my Nesties.
Here's a view of the back...it gives you a better idea of the shape:
I'm also going to enter this into a few other Challenges:
- Our Creative Corner - Christmas in July
- Prairie Fairy Friday - Make it 3D
- Stamp Something - Christmas in July Somethings
