A Christmas Box and Cards...

So I made this box before Thanksgiving, but didn't have time to get posted. So here it is! I have to say....I LOVE these felt flurries! I think they are so great and add so much to a project. This is a box I made to go with 4 cards and envelopes. The snowflakes go great with Ski Slope Designer Series Paper, which is what I used here.
This is the top of the box. In the middle of the snowflakes I put a Build A Brad. These are AMAZING! You just punch anything out using a 1/2" circle punch, put it on the metal post, and then put the clear bubble on top. Voila! A custom brad for whatever your project is! For the center of this brad, I punched a circle out of another sheet of Ski Slope Designer Series Paper.

Here is the box lid off the box...with the cards inside.

Here are the 4 cards that go in the box. So similar, yet so different. :)
This is a close up of just one of the cards.

I even lined the envelopes! Wow....I'm going on the way with this one! :) But I lined the inside with the same DSP pattern that I put on the cards. And then I put a strip of DSP on the bottom of the front of the envelope.

Hope you enjoyed!
