I've been looking for my mojo recently and I found it at my monthly craft group yesterday. After seeing a video tutorial HERE for making these little boxes, I was keen to give them a try. I made one each for my great nephew and great nieces and I'll fill the boxes with chocolates. The ghost are on the front and the names on the back.
I started with a 10" x 5" piece of black card to make the card base. I embossed the orange card with a Cuttlebug 'Swiss Dots' embossing folder. The ghost was die cut with an old Sizzix die - one of the thick yellow ones. The names were die cut with Memory Box 'Uppercase Alphabet Soup' dies, layered on a black mat. (The names ARE stuck on straight, although the angle of the photo makes the name look like it's at an angle.) Finally, I tied the boxes with black ribbon.
I am joining in the following challenges.
Sweet great boxes Liz
