make a box.
Not something I normally make, so I turned to Splitcoaststampers and tried my hand at a little milk carton box. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out - though a decent scoring board would have made it much easier than trying to match up dimensions on my ancient wooden scoring board! I've temporarily closed my carton with a paperclip so you can see the shape, but didn't want to seal it properly until I'd something to put in it!!
My image is Motorin' By Santa - coloured with pencils and lots of glitter added to the fur on his hat/jacket/trousers.
ETA - just found this joke that I had to share ...
What type of motorbike does Santa drive?
A Holly Davidson
Hahahahaha! Def one for the Christmas Cracker!

Lovely box Lynne and great joke, you should print it out and put it in the box with the gift! I've never made anything but a card before now either, then Sparkles asked me to join their Christmas DT. I jumped at the chance and found out my fist challenge was... anything but a card, lol! I panicked a bit I can tell you!! Thanks for playing along with us at Sparkles Christmas Challenges this month.
