Christmas Tree Magic Box

Good Morning,
I really enjoyed making this magic box.  It was very quick to put together since I used the card layout that I cased from Splistcoat  Stampers not long ago.

 I wanted to keep the lid simple so when the inside is revealed there was a "wow" and "ooh".  And I also needed to practice more on my quilling holly leaves.

 

Here is the inside.

I love how this turned out.

So I made another one.  This time I wanted to show the tree inside the box.  So I made this box.

This is only half of the box.  These two sides will not fold out. I cut off the card stock and added the acetate from the packaging.  It was very thick perfect for this.

Here is the finished box.  Viewing from one angle.

Sorry for the poor quality picture.  Viewing from the see through side.

Box opened.

Here is the lid.  Sentiment was form Stampin' Up! Holiday Collection (retired).

Cake in the box/Magic box

Hello Everyone,

I couldn't believe it's March already.  When I posted yesterday, I didn't even realized that it's March.  Then after my children went to school, it hit me! It's March!

Anyway let's get to today post.  I made this magic box for my little neighbor.  I believe she is 6.   I gave it to her but didn't know if she likes it.  I added lots of flowers.  Each flower consisted of 3 flower punches.  There were a total of 24 flowers punches for the lid.  Then  I added more flowers around the box base.

Here is the inside.  More flowers around the 3 tiers cake, 36 flower punches to make the 12 flowers around the cake.  Each punched flower was sponged, then crumble, and open back up and assemble to give demensional.

I am not a pink person.  So when ever I used pink, I always tried to tone it down.   With all the flowers, I decided  to just add white butterflies around the side panel to match the outside box.

Hope you've enjoy today's post.

Thank you SO MUCH for your lovely comments.  I truely appreciated you take the time to leave me comments.

My first Magic Box

Good Friday morning!

Now I can share this Magic Box. I am so excited to share my very first Magic Box. I made this box for a very good friend, Tracy. I am very fortunate to have Tracy as a friend. Our children attended the same class. That was how I met her. And we have became friend.

This week Tracy hold a 5 days club in her nice big back yard from and she extended the invitation for the children to stay and play in her pool after the club ended each day. She organized games and activities for the children (about 20 of them.) She hired her niece and nephew to help out. She bought a bunch of crafts for the children. How nice of her to do that for us?

Since Tracy is such a kind person, I decided to make this "So Kind" Magic Box for her. I hope she likes it.


I got the tutorial from here

For the center flower pot or is it a flower pot? I used the middle 3 tiers cake that I made it myself. No, I did not buy the Sizzix 3 tiers cake from SU. I made my own 3 tiers cake template.

Enjoy the rest of the pictures.



Let me know what did you think!
