All decked up....

Had enough time this year to make one special project.... A matching box and card set...
Took many hours of sweat and toil to successfully pull this one off... but I think the results were pretty darn good... :) I deserve some cookies and milk for this...

The box...

It is constructed similarly to the hard box in a previous post but this one had a cut-out element of a christmas tree to enhance its plain appearance....


As for the card.... This is definitely a multi element card .....

The front has an embossed stylised snowflake design with hand written greetings....
I used opaque white emboss to bring out the details of the stamped design....
Inside was a pop-up christmas tree which was really a pain to construct.... It took make tedious hours of cutting, assembly and attachments to get it to look like that... there is also a cut-out detailing on the based for the added dimension....

How it works...
In full view...
Many sleepless nites went into this.... Good? What's your thots?

A simple christmas package....

My favourite season is here again....

Unfortunately this year I didnt have much time to do a lot of stuff...

But I did manage a few things... one of it is this christmas package which my sis requested me to make for a gift to her fren.... was in a rush so did this in 15 mins or so.... a normal pocket package made different with a huge christmas tree cutout which I recycled form a different project...

Came out pretty decent for a rush job I must say... but mum didnt quite fancy it.... :(
