Not A Card

Good Morning All
I have barely looked at my laptop this week as Hollie and her Mum and Dad as still here, so I am spending as much time as possible with them.
*************
Hobbycutz Challenge this week has been set by MOI and I want to see all your gorgeous creations which are NOT cards.  So - scrapbook page, box, fabric, knitting, crochet, sewing ....................

I decided to make a wall/door hanger.

It is hard to get a good photo because of the length. 




I cut scalloped squares and matted with Spellbinders Fleur do Lis  squares, red on one side and Centura pearl on the other.  I used Hobbycutz snowflakes and glittered them, then used bits and bobs that were in my Christmas box.


I shall put this on the patio doors between my craft room and living room at Christmas time.
*******










I also decorated another of the boxes, carrying on from these posts a good while ago HERE, HERE  HERE and HERE which my older followers will remember.






I covered in a lilac handmade paper, wrapped some 'Cat Ribbon' (won from Crafty Ribbons ) around as I am giving it to Hollie and she loves cats. Then added flowers, gems, button, crochet flowers and hearts.
I wrote the label by hand, hopefully, it looks OK.
Put a tiny envelope and card on top aswell with a little note form Nanna.


I put the image from A Day For Daisies inside the lid and added a couple of Marianne die cut butterflies.

In a future post you will see a Keepsake Box I have made for Noah too.


I hope you will join in the challenge this week.
