Mmmm not the best photograph but you get the general idea.
To make this box I have used Spellbinder Grand Hexagon Petal envelope die together with the A4 (yes I said A4) embossing folder Lattice. Shame it's not the best photo for you to see the embossing. I have also used a roll of acetate (I knew that roll I bought would come in handy but I'm blowed if I can remember where I got it from, you could use two sheets of A4) with Spellbinder dies Create a flake 3 and 2010 Snowflake pendant.
The hexagon envelopes create the top and bottom of the box and I have used 8 of the snowflake die inside to create the 3D snowflake but you could use more, I recommend using paper rather than card for the snowflake as the top and bottom get too thick with card and you want to be able to thread ribbon and a bell to hang it up. The snowflakes on the top are the 2010 pendant and Create a flake 3 layered on top with 3D foam.
Did I mention I'm loving the new A4 embossing folders?!
Now all your boxes can be embossed too, all over, how neat is that?
Oh my a few dies and an embossing folder is all it takes to get this girl happy! LOL. ;)
I hope you are having a super weekend and I'll be back with more tomorrow. Happy crafting!

Wow Erika, this is really stunning. Love it. Must check out the A4 embossing folders. I often wish some of my favourites were bigger. I sometimes emboss a bigger bit of card with some but as I'm sure you know some work better than others.
Hope you've had a good day at the Papeterie. What a nasty wet day it's been.

Gorgeous project, in total agreement over the embossing folders. Many happy crafters I should think. xx Flora
Hi Erika, what a beauty you left for us today. Did you say an A4 lattice embossing folder, must look into that. I just adore the A4 embossing folders, saves a lot of heartache trying to line up the smaller ones to get a larger pattern. Enjoy your day in Aberdeen. Look forward to big reveal tomorrow I hope.
