Okay all you fabulous crafters out there.........I am sure most of your friends and family members would love to get something handmade from you.

So this week I asked the team to use either of the two sets:

The PAPER BEADS set is perfect for making some necklace, earrings and more....then package it all up using the JEWELRY HOLDER SET.

Wow, sooooo adorable! Love the suitcase mini album idea. postcards are stinkin' cute

CONGRATULATIONS Lisa, you have won any 3 sets from our online store. I will be contacting you shortly.

Alrighty we have the PERFECT box for you to use for giving someone a gift.

This week the team is featuring projects using the

TALL BOX TEMPLATE.

You can fit so many items into this box AND IT IS SUPER EASY to put together WITHOUT A CUTTING MACHINE.

Remember you don't need to have a cutting machine to cut out our templates. The template sets also come in PDF format and I design them to be pretty basic. The amaziness comes in with the papers and embellisments that you use to decorate your box. :)

Take a look at all the wonderful boxes the team came up with this week and don't forget to leave us a comment and I will randomly draw one name to win any 3 sets from our online store next Wednesday.
