Bauble / Treat box

 

Please read my Data Protection and Privacy Policy – (page tab above)

Good Morning,

It’s the last challenge of 2024 at

CRAFT Challenge.

For the next 3 weeks our theme is

New / Anything Goes

Our fabulous sponsor for this week is

 

All dressed Up

But for my Christmas bauble treat box I used

 5 Shades of Grey Christmas Paper Pack from our Star of the Month Sponsor

Trimgym’s Digi Stamps, Papers and Images. – our Star of the Month Sponsor





I have been wanting to have a go at making one of these Bauble Treat Boxes after seeing them on Paul Ford’s You Tube Channel – here

I can’t recommend Paul’s tutorials highly enough.

They are so easy to follow and so inspirational!

The papers are linked above.

I actually cut the pattern squares and glitter mats on my Cricut Maker.

The boxes are large enough for a Terry’s orange or whatever your favourite sweets are.

Maybe a small bottle of perfume would fit in there, or earrings, rings etc.
