Joyeux Noel

Hi friends and welcome to another great challenge week over at The Kraft Journal! Before I talk about my little pillow box creation, I wanted to let you all know about a give away - a $20 voucher for The Kraft Outlet!! Head over to the blog to find out more!

This week the challenge is to use die cuts in your creations. I ended up layering a couple of stamped label die cuts over a kraft pillow box to make this festive holiday gift container. These great pillow boxes are the perfect size for little treats or a gift card!

I stamped the pillow box with a snowflake pattern in silver to give it an extra festive touch and used chipboard flag die cuts and coordinating die cut flag stickers to make the little "to/from" flags which were glued on to toothpicks and tucked behind the labels. The little box was finished with a big red bow.

I hope to see you play along this week! Just by linking up your creation featuring kraft cardstock or products purchased at The Kraft Outlet, you will be eligible to be part of our Top 3 and also have a chance to win a voucher! Fun!!
Supplies: Pillow Box (TKO), Stamps - Very Vintage Christmas, Holiday Labels 14 (WMS), Ink - Silver (Encore), Black/Riding Hood Red (SU!), Cardstock - Vintage Cream (PTI), Chipboard Flags/Stickers (Jenni Bowlin), toothpicks/ribbon (my stash)
