The Challenge this week is simply to decorate a box or a container that can be given as a Christmas Gift. This is a picture of my box-topper. It is a Chevron Pattern that is created with Nutcracker Sweet Collection papers by Graphic 45, available At Joan's Gardens. The chevrons square is created following a tutorial by Jill Olsen presented in the December 2012 Papers and Pixels Magazine (page 67) that is released on December 15th.. I used spellbinders Lacy Squares Die (available from At Joan's Gardens) and an embossing folder "lattice" by Sizzix for Stampin Up for this topper. The Merry Christmas sentiment is a SU stamp in Wasabi green ink (also SU). I brushed over the whole thing with 3D glaze.
Very nice! I can imagine all your presents decorated and under a beautifully decorated tree!!!
