Peppermints and Snowflakes!!

 Phew........finally some time to post to the blog today.  It's been a crazy time around here with work, school projects, and the onset of HOCKEY SEASON!! 
Just getting a chance to share this project I put together a couple of weeks ago.
First off, I used this super cute new kit from Taylored Expressions - Merry Little Cocktail.
I love this peppermint candy stamp....and the rest of the kit.........so many ideas running through my head.
I made the box with my Sizzix scallop square die.  I designed my own box for the middle and added some curled wire for the handle.
The bow is from some of the red velvet wrinkled rayon ribbon I have available HERE.
 To go inside the scallop box, I made a set of 6 holiday notecards. 
The sentiment on the cards is from the PTI set - Signature Christmas.  Another very versatile holiday set that everyone must have.
 Here is a little closer look at the box and the cards
 The cards fit perfectly inside the box.  Great for a gift - they can use the cards and then use the box to gift someone else!
I love how this turned out.  I must make more!!
Stay tuned - new colors of twine coming soon to my Etsy shop.......
