Just Us Girls - DT Call

By
There is a DT Call over on Just Us Girls and I think I have made it by the skin of my teeth! I found out about it a week ago but since then I have had kittens at the vets having operations and my daughter leaving for university and it got pushed onto the back burner till today.
The first part of the challenge was to make a card or scrapbook layout using this sketch

Here is my card


The next thing to do was create a project using a 3D template - take a look:


This is a fabulous little box made out of some card I bought at my local supermarket - it's really thick and perfect for making boxes, unfortunatly though I can't give any colour names.
The decoration is flowers made from some Marianne D Creatables dies.
But the best thing about this box is when you open it up it looks like this:


As you open the box there are four little boxes inside that are arranged in steps then as you close the box they fold neatly away inside.
Thanks for taking the time to look today, see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    What a lot you've had on - it's not surprising the project went on the back burner. The box is brilliant Jacqueline! I was given chocolates for my birthday in a box a bit like this and I've been gazing at it ever since! I love that you made a coordinating card. Vx

    Two great projects - good luck with the DT call. I've made a similar box with fabric but not seen a template for one in card

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
