It is time for the Allsorts Challenge again and the theme this week has been set by Helene and it is Ribbon & Bow so this is a good one for most people I think.
I chose an image form one of the sponsors and coloured with Promarkers.
Then I pondered what to do with it Mmmmmmm.
I decided on something abit different for me and this was after seeing John Next Doors post here on how to make this style of box. Made from acetate and a couple of pieces of A4 card, EK border punch and a Spellbinders Octagon die. I found it easier using the red DST instead of a wet glue.
Incase you are wondering, inside is a baby talc and a sponge.
My box is octagonol instead of hexagonal because I did not have a suitable die.
It took abit of fiddling about but I managed it quite well I think. I am not too good at measuring and following instructions very closely, I tend to look at something and think,mmm I,ll do it like this........
This is it before putting the image on and putting goods inside.
You could use as a gift box for anyone really and put Body lotion or shower gel inside, or candles or chocolates mmmmmm.
The sponsors this week are ....
Passion for Stamps will give a winner 4 images of choice.

An absolutely brilliant idea.
If my sister Hazel (Hazel's baskets of Joy) sees this she will have me on a mission to show her how to do. This is right up her street.
Thank goodness she is still on holiday.
Have a great weekend Wendy
