This time it's a picture prompt
November Elemental Challenge.
What to make: Anything Goes - Christmas themed or not
Just choose a minimum of 3 elements from the moodboard above to use when you make your project.
In the bottom left square there are lots of gift boxes so I decided to use those as one of my elements and actually make a box - then use my other elements to decorate it - the main ones being the Black and White checked ribbon and the snowflakes
As usual, I got a bit carried away so there are other things that douns their way onto this one!
The box was made from white card then covered with papers from a digital collection called Frozen Forest - using digi for projects like this means I can crop and resise the papers to work better, and print more copies if I need to
Once the box was made it was just a case of arranging a whole bunch of things onto the top! I tied a double bow from the ribbon and die cut a few different snoflakes from glitter card - to make sure my chosen elements were in there. Then I added some extras, mainly things that were already cut ready to put onto cards, including various snoflakes, holly, greenery and cuties from the:
I thought the box needed a bit of elevation, so added some feet to the ase, and to finish the decoration I added springs of holly to the corners and sone red bead berries
