A Merry Little Box


Hello ~ Hello

I hope you are having a good week so far. I finished my Christmas shopping last night ~ It was not too busy when I got there right after work, and after I was done, I had a yummy hot chocolate from Starbucks and watched everyone else hurry with their shopping for awhile and listen to the christmas music piping from the mall.......Santa had quite the line ~ looks like a lot of kids have been good this year. :-)

For today's post I am sharing a little 3X3 Box I created over the weekend. I used the tutorial posted here on SCS. The tutorial is listed as a notecard box, but with the size it is, it's also perfect for smaller gifts without the notecards on the inside, which is what I am planning to use this for......all the patterned papers are from October Afternoon's (OA) Good Cheer Collection (older - I found some other posts from 2008 that used this collection - it's new to me!) .  The sentiment is from OA's Holiday Style Flower Sack A couple of weeks ago I purchased one of the OA Santa Sacks. It was a great box of fun to open, as it was a huge assortment of OA goodies ~ from many different collections, including some of the new ones. The tree is just a triangle cut from one of the sheets of DP. I used one of the spellbinders label dies to create the tag. I didn't use any stamps on this box/tag combo. The ribbon is from SU!

Thanks for stopping by!
