Hello Nomad friends. I hope you are warm and cosy. It's chilly here in Norwayland and we had another inch of snow last night. We don't usually have much snow here, but it seems to be having a moment. Me and the hens are hoping that the ground will resume it usual colour soon. Plan A today is to finish up with christmas card writing so I can get them posted tomorrow. But first a little self closing box.........
I really like this style of box. No difficult lid to make and once you have the trick you can knock them out any size. I used red bazzill for the box base and then some brown scraps that I stamped with baking themed stamps from Poppystamps Cupcake Party set. I cut Poppystamps Heart Swoosh from a scrap of red and then Poppystamps little boy and girl gingerbread dies from some of the brown scrap leftovers. A bit of red and gold twine and a Merry Christmas bottle cap and it's ready to be filled with fresh baked cookies.
Thanks for dropping by. Hugz

Oh what a lovely box you made. Self-closing too - very clever.
ReplyDeleteA nice warm mug of hot chocolate awaits you up in the Treehouse where Di, Dudley and I are all snuggled up under a crocheted blanket keeping warm!
