Starting with the Box!

Hello there,

I finally caught onto the whole make a gift box thing at the end of last year (how weird is it to say that lol) as time was always against me but it really doesn't take as much time as I thought and I don't have to fight with wrapping papers any more!

Here is a box I made for my Nephew's Birthday that has a featured image on the top, coloured with my gorgeous Spectrum Aqua Pens

Added advantage of using the image...I don't have to remember to post the card too, its on the box!

Here's what I used to make it with lots of scrummy Crafter's Companion goodies:
