It's That Time of the Year!

Late last night dear hubby told me today was his office Christmas party. Thankfully I already had an ornament for him to take-a big tooth of course! (He's the IT guy for a large dental clinic.) I got up this morning and decided I would make a fancy box for his ornament, my Cricut was feeling neglected ya know. I also made a cut little tag to go with it. I know this is way over the top for their parties, but the girls in the office love it when I send hubby with cute packages. My box turned out larger than I needed, so I just filled the bottom with tissue paper. Of course I had to add paper lace and bling to the box as well, I mean really! Hope you like...
The "box" was made with the flower pot cut on Cindy Loo, the paper lace is from that cartridge as well. The box was cut to fit on a 12 x 24 piece of card stock, much larger than I realized it would be, but I like it anyhow. There are  green and clear crystals on the "lace" but you can see them very well here.

Here's a closeup of the tag. All the cuts are from Winter Frolic. Everything was designed on my dear Chloe (Gypsy.)

Hope you have a Merry Crafty Weekend!
