Here is my decorated Holiday gift box:

I used the My Timeless Fold N' Go template designed by the Uber talented Lauren Meader:

I love gift sets especially this time of the year!

I made a coordinating card :) For sketch inspiration, I used Kazan's fun sketch #40, 2S4Y40.

From a close-up view, you can see that BOTH my gift box & card are 3-D! Definitely making this a hand deliverable set :)

Hi Girls! Are you ready to go 3 Dimensional with Just Us Girls?

This week we are presenting you with a 3 Dimensional / Template Challenge & I am the Hostess! We would like to see you add a 3-D flower to your project! For a lil' inspiration, I made a How To Video Tutorial featuring paper tissue flowers that I promised! I can't wait to see what sort of 3-D flower you make!

For my project, I made a paper tissue flower for my card using the Spellbinders Blossom dies.

I inked up a sponge dauber with SU Close to Cocoa ink & smudged it around all the edges of all layers to give it a soft appearance.

In this close up photo, you can get a better view of the layers & dimension.
