Box and card set

My step daughter started her new job a few weeks ago.  I quickly whipped up this card and box set for her. I made the box after watching Connie Stewarts video on You Tube. Thanks for sharing Connie! 

I purchased a extra large slab of chocolate  and made the box to fit the size of the chocolate.

Trio of Kraft Boxes

I am totally in love with these kraft boxes and they are so versatile.  I covered a couple in DSP and on the other one I embossed straight onto the box.

 

I just have to include a couple of photos of my gorgeous kitties as I spent some time taking heaps of photos of them over the Christmas Break amongst all the physcial labour of building retaining walls, planting plants, etc.  I was pleased to go back to work for a break!!!
