Christmas is quickly approaching and it's time to start making gift boxes ahead of time. Eileen's Stacking Drawer Die is a perfect size to hold a small gift.
Cut out from Sizzix Matboard it makes a sturdy little box to keep any gift safe and sound.
I painted the inside of mine black and chose some fabulous Christmas paper from Anna Griffin that's been in my stash for years. I found a couple of embellishments in there too, which makes this an even quicker make!
I used the die to cut the front of the drawer from the patterned paper, this makes it super easy to get everything lined up where it should be. then I carefully cut out a piece of paper for the back of the drawer, and a long strip to cover the outside of the drawer case completely. I used double side tape to adhere the paper to the matboard. Again this makes it super easy especially when batch making.
Now all I had to do was to add those pre-made embellishments and it's one gift box completely finished.
All ready for something special to be popped in.
So my Christmas makes have begun, have you started yours yet? Let me know in the comments.
Happy Crafting.
