My Creative Time's 3-D Wednesday


Emma is starting something new at My Creative Time:  3-D Wednesdays!  Each week she and a few members of the design team will be creating something that is NOT a card or layout!  For my project today I created a little snowflake box full of gift tags.


I began by cutting the box from the Cricut Wrap It Up cartridge at 10 1/2".  I used my Gypsy so that I could hide the score marks.  It's easy to tell where to score this one, and I prefer not to have the little notches cut out.


Once it was cut, I was ready to stamp my background.  To keep the two snowflake halves from getting ink on them, I covered them with post-it notes.  I then created my own background by stamping the snowflake from My Creative Time's Anyday Bingo & Crossword.


The next step was to glitter up my snowflake.  I covered each half with my Zig 2 Way Glue, and then covered them with glitter.


I love how the sparkly glitter makes that snowflake pop!


Tucked inside of my box are these tags.  I made all of them with My Creative Time's Scallop & Stitched Circle Die and the All Around Christmas stamp set.


Each of the images was colored with Copics, and I used the same Zig 2 Way plus glitter technique on Mrs. Claus and Santa's outfits.


On the back of each tag I stamped "To" & "From" with stamps from My Creative Time's Gift Card Sentiments.  Be sure to stop by Emma's blog to see what everybody else created for you today!

    The tags you made for the gifts could be used on a scrapbook page.

    Do I give them away or keep them???

    Love the box.
