Hi
I
am sharing a lovely gift box that I was given when I went to stay
with my friend Jae at Easter time – I have several part made cards
but just didn't feel up to finishing them off – had hospital
appointment today and wasn't overly pleased with what I was told...
Anyway
– to the gift box..
It
is designed by Donna Glenn and on a cd by Cardigami
On
the cd are several different kits so you can decide on which box or
pouch to make in which colour suits the occasion!
So
with regards this box – Jae printed direct to white card stock and
cut out the whole design – it is just a case of score and fold on
all lines then use glue or double sided tape to secure the last seam.
When
it comes to the lid or box top its a bit like a kiddies windmill –
as in you score and fold one piece then the next petal folds nd tucks
under the first and so on until the last petal is slightly twisted to
slot in under all the rest making a pretty pink poinsettia!
She
also made a matching gift card that was attached to the box and the
finishing touch was she added 4 scented lemon tea-light candles which
fitted perfectly in the bottom
This
would be the perfect hand made craft item for the fayre's and such
especially for schools – they are relatively quick, easy and cheap
to make but look fab and have to be worth buying!!!
I
should be back with a card again tomorrow!!
Bye
