Wow! A week went by already? You can really see how fast Christmas is coming. This week's project is a gift box to match the Diamond Card we made last week. This box that Sandi MacIver designed is precious and it fits $money$ really, really nice. My kids are grown and the items they want now are out of reach for Christmas gifts. HA! They always can use is a little cash right? Don't you think these boxes really dress up the idea of cash, gift cards, movie tickets? They will look great under the tree! And...the recipient will still have something to open!
Easy, Easy project to make! Who, on your list, is going to get their small gift so gorgeously wrapped? Newsletter with Countdown 1 and 2 insructions is coming soon. I promise. Post a comment to add yourself to my "HOT" list of first customers for the newsletter. Or just post a comment about the project! We LOVE comments!
