SVG Attic - Monday's Project

Don't you love the holidays with the parties, gift exchanges, and cookie exchanges? The holidays are always an excuse for me to bake and hand out goodies to neighbors and friends and I found the cookie box from the set "Cookies for Santa" at SVG Attic is perfect for my yummy treats.


There is an insert you can make to keep your cookies separated but I was using those cute little cupcake holders for my cookies so I didn't make and add them.
I cut the box bottom at 11.25 inches and the box top at 11.30 inches so I would have a little extra sizing so the top fits easier on the bottom. I also added an extra cardstock bottom insert for extra support.
I found that the acetate photo holders for scrapbooks work great for the see through windows for these type of boxes and the photo holders aren't that expensive and you can use a coupon on them at most craft stores that have weekly coupons.
I love this star! It is from the set "O Christmas Tree." I cut it out a little bigger than I expected so I went back with my craft scissors and put a pretty edging on it. I used gold embossing powder too.
This was my final project full of yummys for my cookie exchange.  There is an extra band that goes around the window but I decided since I was using the star that I didn't need the band on this box but I know I will be adding it to my next one since I have already picked out the cardstock.

Christmas Joy Layout using SVGAttic files

Click for  GIRLIE GIRL BLOG HOP 

Please I am just so excited this morning! Why, you ask? I am one of the newest members of the design team for SVGAttic. I love their files and they work great on both my Cricut Expression and my Sizzix eClips. The newest version of SCAL (eSCAL) which is for the eClips, arrived on my doorstop on Monday.

The December challenge at SVG attic is asking that us crafters get creative with the colors: red/green/pink/blue and white. Head over to SVG attic see all the rules and to get in on the fun!

Here is my design team project...



The lovely ornaments and snowflakes come from the ALL THE TRIMMINGS at SVG attic. There is even an adorable penguin and a drum-a-rum-rum in the set plus more.

Bazzill cardstock in purple for the background
K&Company Wintertide paper for the ornaments, words, and second layer of the snowflakes
DCWV premium glitter stack was used for the top layer of the snowflakes which were cut at 4 inches, 3.5 inches, and 3 inches
Words "Christmas Joy" were TTF Frenchscript which I welded together in Inkscape and cut at 2 inches.

Stickles glitter was used for the middle of each snowflake and the design in each corner of each page
ColorBox ink in gold was used for the ornament top and around the outside edges of each ornament.
Thank you for stopping by today and if you have any questions or comments, please leave them. I love to hear from my followers and friends.
