{cQc#114} a very Merry Christmas to YOU!


There is a little twist on the Colour Q Challenge this week and it is to create anything BUT a card!   Hmmm,  how about a cute little gift box?   This "five in one box" design is so easy to make and oh so versatile!  It's been around awhile, but if it's new to you and you're wondering how to create one yourself, Beate Johns has an excellent picture tutorial on Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the link

Look at these FUN colors for this week's challenge!  I really wanted to make a snowman card as cute as this little guy in the photo below . . .



I used the Stampin' Up! snowflake wheel and white craft ink to give the cool caribbean and poppy parade cardstock a little design. 


Wouldn't this be the perfect way to wrap up a little gift for someone special?  And depending on what cardstock and designer paper you choose to use, each one will be unique and perfectly festive!  These are colors I would never think to put together, but I like them, don't you?  ;)

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Holiday JOY to you and yours!  ♥

Pam, this is beautiful. I really love the "scalloped" look to the box lid and the combo of patterned papers is FAB! Thanks so much for playing colourQ this week! I always love to see what you'll create!
