Lattice Bon Bon Box

This is the final Favour Box that I created for Die-cutting Essentials Magazine.  I used the Bon Bon Box from Crafter's Companion.

I cut the box from Centura Pearl card stock and then cut the panels into the box so that you can see what is on the inside.  If you have this die you need to make sure that you burnish the folds really well before you make up the box, especially the curved edges - use your fingers.

Baby Blue and Silver

This is another of the Crafter's Companion Favour Boxes that I created for Die-cutting Essentials Magazine Issue 60, I think this is my favourite box from the collection - it is the Trinket Box.

I cut the base of the box from pale blue Centura Pearl and cut the panels from the base, I then placed silver glitter cardstock behind the panels so that it shows through.  These boxes are quite simple to put together, just make sure that you burnish the score lines really well.

Lavender Honeycomb Box

This is the third favour box that I created for the latest edition of Die-cutting Essentials Magazine, I created five in total - you can find some of the others HERE.

I used the Honeycomb Favour Box die to create this one, I cut the base from Lavender Centura Pearl cardstock and the panels from Precious Metals Luxury Cardstock.  The tag and sentiment are also from the die collection, the ribbon is from my stash.  These boxes are relatively easy to make up, you just need to burnish the folds really well and shape the curved edges with your fingers before making them up.

Thank you for popping in today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave.

Blue for You

This is another of the gift boxes I was asked to create for Die-cutting Essentials Magazine Issue 60, I used the fabulous Crafter's Companion Favour Box Dies.

I used the Gift Carton Box dies to create this one, I think this box would be really good for children's party gifts.  I cut the box from Baby Blue Centura Pearl cardstock and the panels from Royal Blue -  the sentiment is from the Trinket Box die collection.

Boxing Clever

Hello all, it's good to be back in action again, unfortunately my husband was rather ill before Christmas and then my laptop decided to die on me so I have not been posting for a while.  Hubby is now better and I have a new laptop so normal service will be resumed.

I was asked to create some small gift boxes using the fabulous Crafter's Companion Favour Box Dies for Die-cutting Essentials Magazine Issue 60 and this is one of my favourites.

I used the Trinket Box die along with some Royal Blue and Baby Blue Centura Pearl cardstock.  The sentiment is from the Honeycombe Favour Box die set.  These boxes are so easy to make up and they are a really useful size - you really should give them a go.

Thank you for visiting my blog today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave - they are all read and very much appreciated.
