How has your week been? I've had a really productive week and managed to get stuff I didn't think I would so it's a bonus.
The Daring Cardmakers are stepping away from the cards once again this week and would like to see the wonderful bags and boxes you make. They don't have to be Christmas themed but I took the opportunity to try something new for Christmas.
I decided to go for a milk carton. I've admired a lot of these on social media for a long time and thought I'd give it a go. It was actually really quick and simple to do.
For the background, I used a digital download called Winter Celebrations which included backing papers and sentiments. If you're a Create & Craft member you can download it for free. It is just so cute and I was drawn to the adorable penguins and the colour scheme.
To embellish my box I die cut a tag and added the sentiment to it together with baker's twine and bells - they always come out at Christmas! I used a wooden peg to hold it all together. I added foiled tape to the top and bottom of the box for added festive appeal!
So there we have it - a festive milk carton ready to be filled with goodies. I'm going to make a few for our neighbours and fill them with goodies.
I hope you wave a wonderful weekend whatever you do and see you again next week,
Shabneez
