Christmas Gift Box
What a terrible day its been here in the West coast of Scotland. The wind & rain has never stopped and of course we had to keep some appointments. After hurricane sandy I really should not complain as we came home to a lovely warm house and a meal with home-made chicken soup to warm us up. On a brighter note, here is a gift box I made, thanks to one of my blog friends Christine. It was so easy to make and I intend to make more of them. The link is Here Its was made with one sheet of A4 card ,measured out and decorated. I hope you all have a go at making one. I'm feeling quite tired to-day, so I think I will have a rest to-night and start afresh to-morrow. Hope you are fine and busily crafting. Hugs Rita xx
Sorry about the side picture, obviously shaky hands. x

This type of box is so handy for little gifts and I've also made smaller ones with a sheet of A5 - I suppose they could be made any size depending on the card available. I like the way this one has been decorated.

This is such a pretty little box. I love how you decorated it. I think I will have to give this a try. We did end up with sun most of the day. Looks like the snow will be delayed! Chicken soup sounds so good.
