All Boxed Up

THIS POST HAS BEEN EDITED SINCE CAROLYN HAS ALREADY RECEIVED HER GIFT. Thank you!! :0)




Today i actually got one of my Christmas gifts finished. It actually went very well seeing as how i didn't even know how i wanted it to look i was just making things up as i went along. I used Lauren Meader's "All Boxed up" Timeless Templates. these are so cool. instead of using two pockets for cards and envelopes i only used one and made file folders for it. on the other side i matted it and made a slit to slide in my notebook. On the box side i made a small calendar with my nestabilities. The calendar was printed off the Crafty Secrets website, i cut them out using my circle nestability and matted onto a scallop circle made with the scallop nestability. I used scor-pal tape to adhere everything so that it would all stay put and not fall apart. On the front frame i am going to put the recipients name but since she checks my blog i left her name for later. A pen will go in the middle and i just noticed i never added it on-oops!
Well i thank you for stopping by, and have a GREAT night!!
