I love how an assembly book was included in the cartridge. It made putting the items together so much easier.
This box definitely says Christmas, so I choose some poinsettia paper from a paper pad called O'Christmas Tree from Recollections. I didn't quite have the right ribbon on hand to tie up the box, but you get the idea. This box is on page 34 in the handbook and was cut out at 4.5 inches.
The next one is on page 37 and was cut at 4 inches. This one reminds me of a happy meal box, so that's my nickname for this one. :) This cardstock was given to me, so I'm not sure where it from, but it is a mint green color.
This one is on page 48 and is cut out at 3.2 inches. I think this one is my favorite and reminds me of a hat box. I also cut out the bow on page 55 and used a silver brad to hold it together. The pattern paper is a paper pad from DCWV called The Naturals Stack.
The next shape I made was the candy box. This is on page 68 and was cut out at 11 inches. The paper is from the O'Christmas Tree Recollections paper pad. I used some curling ribbon to bring the edges together. This will be another fun one for Christmas gifts.
The last one I had time for was on page 69 and was cut out at 3.5 inches. I really like this one as well and has some great potential for being a treat box to give out a Christmas time. It's kind of hard to see, but I placed some vellum on the underside of the lid, so there wasn't actually a hole, but you can kind of see through it. The pattern paper is from Me & My Big ideas and the paper pad is called Specialty Cardstock.
This cartridge has sooo much more to offer and I can't wait to play around with it some more. I have a feeling it is going to come in very handy at Christmas time as well. :) Hope everyone had a great weekend and here's to a good week!
