Paper Crafting Monthly Blog Hop - Gift Packaging

Hello and Welcome to this bunch of awesome creative paper crafters.  This is a great hop of talented people, so make sure you hop all the way around to be totally inspired!!

The theme this month is Gift Packaging!  How perfect is that!!  

I used these little beauties recently to give a small gift to my bible study group.  My husband also gave a whole heap to his work colleagues!!  They are quite easy to create too.  I've used the gorgeous Pretty Pillowbox dies with Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  The stamping from the lovely Perfectly Plaid stamp set is using Cherry Cobbler ink.  

I've wrapped some gorgeous gold shimmer ribbon and embellished the labels using gold holly leaves and some red jewels.  

The little pillowbox is the perfect size for a cute bite sized chocolate - and I even squeezed 2 in for my friends and their hubbys!!  

Up next to inspire you on our hop is the marvellous Terri - I love her work!!

Here's the list of everyone on the hop in case you get lost on the way!!!
