Box it up and Gift it....

Up for a challenge?! Sure you are!! Monday challenge time at Lollipop Crafts!

Challenge #33 - Make a box or gift is issued today by our very own Lollipop Girl Zulma!! oh can you feel the challenge?!? we all love giving gifts so why not join us and make a box for that something special or a gift in general!! another fun way to think outside the 'card'... It's the first challenge of April and you should know what that means by now.... MELJEN'S DESIGNS is our sponsor and as always, giving one random winner a whimsical prize!! so be sure to play along.... deets may be found on the LC blog... with many celebrations coming up, i decided to dust off my window treat box sizzix die and create a few treat boxes... the theme is pretty plain so you can use it for just about anything... Easter, Mother's Day, Admin's Day etc... i used some 'spring' papers to dress these boxes up, and even embossed some solid squares... added a layered flower with button middle and that makes my cover... on the flap inside i managed to add a slid white CS stamped with to/from (from a TGF set - Xmas Sweeties) and used my MS leaf and a flower punch... the window opening is covered with acetate so the sweets don't fall out...

hope to have inspired you in creating something for this challenge.... please visit the rest of the Lollipop Girls (blogs on my sidebar) and see what kind of boxes or gifts they've created... oh and don't forget to leave them some love!!

alrighty sweeties, need to head on out... thank you for sharing a part of your day with me, come back soon!!!
