Good morning and welcome to the Inkspirations holiday Blog Hop! If you've come here from Keesh's blog, you're right on track. If you're just popping in to my blog, you can start at the beginning by heading to the Inkspirations Challenge blog!For this blog tour, we are all making something 3D that is for a Christmas gift!!! I was running short on time and so I whipped these up relatively quickly. I needed teacher gifts - talk about last minute -- today is the last day of school for my kids before Christmas break! and considering that I'm typing this an hour before the hop goes live, that's cutting it rather close :)
Anyway, these boxes easily fit 5-7 decently decorated cards. I didn't include envelopes inside each box, no room and too late to adjust the template I'd made up for this ... LOL! It's a matchbox style box, so the card tray just slides out. I'd included a poem about using gift cards rather than just saving them inside each box.
This will be the Inkspirations' final posting for the year. Please check out the rest of the hop -- your next stop on the Inkspirations Christmas Gift blog tour is ...
Thanks for visiting, have yourself a fabulous day :)

Gorgeous gift idea Renee. I love all that you have been making with this very cute snowman and this is no exception. Great colours, yummy papers and oh so gorgeous ribbon. I love that polka dot ribbon, I am hoarding mine :) Enjoy this last week before Christmas. Xx
These are so adorable! I didn't know quite what to do with these papers, but you've done a fabulous job with your boxes. TFS!
Sweet idea - love the light, bright colour scheme, Jo
The box is a great idea for presenting the cards Renee. I love how you mix and matched all the different patterns - it looks so fun and festive!

Adorable, Renée! Love the boxes! It's a good thing you posted the template too because I'm making boxes of cards for my MIL and SIL today! You just saved me searching. ; )
