Today the My Time Made Easy design team is posting their year in review projects. I chose to use the A Box is a Box template. I have a Christening to go to in a few weeks for my husband's cousin's adopted daughter. I haven't seen her yet, but I hear she's cute, sweet, and super tiny! I love this box because it has a cut-out in the lid. The original template has a tree, leaf, flower, or snowflake to choose from, but you can use any cut file that you desire. I wanted a cross for my gift box, so I purchased it from the Silhouette store. It worked perfectly! I edged the lid with a lacy trim that's a Martha Stewart punch. The digital paper I'm using on this project is from Grammy's Pretty Patterns.
The pretty bow was made using the Bow Tied cut file. I love that bow and the green polka dot paper! I finished it off with a pretty heart button.
While I was in the Silhouette store, I realized I had some money on a gift card that I got when I purchased my Silhouette. So I decided to purchase this card base. I saw it on this blogpost today, and thought it would be accompany the box nicely. The cross is the cut-out from the box. I layered it onto the Cornice Trimmed Oval cut file, and added liquid pearls. I didn't take a picture of the inside, but I stamped "Congratulations" from the Senitmental Occasions stamp set.
The entire team, including our four new members, is all posting today. Stop by these blogs.
Thanks for stopping by today!

This is a beautiful box and sweet card. so feminine but the added green bow is just the right touch!
I love the cross idea. It really shows people you can do anything you want to add to the template. I thinks its stunning, and the card is too.
