I have another One Sheet Wonder for You.  If you are like me and hoard Designer Paper, it’s time to use it.  🙂  I always buy pretty Designer Paper and then only use small amounts on cards and projects.  Today we are going to use the entire sheet to make this gift box.  It’s a good size box and could hold cupcakes, gifts, treats and even home baked cookies.  If you are going to put heavy items in the box, please use a stronger adhesive like Multipurpose glue or Tear & Tape.  I am starting to use Christmas Designer paper and have chosen the Under the Mistletoe Designer paper #146921 in our Annual Catalog. It has lovely plaids, ornaments, Holly and Poinsettias.

Merry Christmas!  My video explains everything.  Class RSVP is till July30th.  If you plan to order an online class to do the cards at home you will need to place a $25- order. You have to use Hostess Code D967V32G to get your FREE Rhinestones.

I have a pretty card for you today using the Varied Vases stamp set with matching punch.  I love when a set has a punch.  It makes cutting so easy.  No fussy cutting.

Please use my July Host Code D967V32G when ordering and I will send you out a free tutorial by e-mail.  If you order is over $150- do not use the Hostess code as you will be able to redeem the Host rewards and I will still send you out a free tutorial.
