Christmas Gift

Here is my project for this weeks challenge at Come and Get It. Meighan is our host and she has a theme called Christmas Gift. I decided that instead of putting presents on a card I would make a gift. I have used the Milk Carton die, along with Festive Flurry Designer paper, mini clips, jingle bells, pool party twine, Pool Party and Smokey Slate card stock, Pool Party seam binding ribbon and the festive flurry adornment.
I made 4 cartons from the milk carton die and made the carrier. There are three pieces for the carrier,
2 pieces cut at 3.3/4 in by 5.5 inches and scored at 1 inch on all sides, then cut up to the 1 inch mark on the shorter ends. These two pieces make up the box that holds the milk cartons. for the handle cut a piece at 3.5 by 5.5 inches. punch out the handle with the wide oval punch and glue between the two boxes.
I have used the hexagon punch to punch out my images and then hand cut around them once they were attached to the coastal cabana card stock. they are put on with dimensionals. the twine was threaded through the jingle bells tied into a bow and then attached with glue dots. Now go on go over to the challenge blog and look at all the other great projects.

Thanks

This is a thank you card that I made with some of the new toys I received from my sister in law, who is here visiting from the Netherlands. Her and my other sister in law, know how much I love to make cards, that she brought over a whole bunch of stuff for me to play with, 3d, 3d pyramid and parchment stuff. So I made this card using one of the images to say thanks for the lovely gift.
I won't be here again probably until next week sometime as the visitors are here for a week only as this is their second stop on wonderful trip. They started off in Miami to take a cruise to Jamaica and Barbados, now they are here and after they leave here they will be traveling to Iceland for a week before flying home.
