Secret Santa Box
I have decided to share a box I designed to hold a sweet secret Santa gift which I will be taking to our team Christmas meal later this month.

I started with a piece of Coastal Cabana measuring 7½” by 7½” which I scored at 3” and 4½” using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool. I rotate the cardstock one turn and scored at 3” and 4½”. I then took a piece of Thick Whisper White cardstock measuring 4⅝” by 4⅝” and scored this at ½” and 1½” on all 4 sides. I trimmed both panels as shown in the photographs.

I ran the embossing buddy over both layers and stamped the sweet little snowflake stamps in Versamark ink on both panels, covered them with Silver Embossing Powder and heat set using my Heat Tool. I put both parts of the box together with Tear & Tape and slipped in my secret Santa gift. I used the lovely Poppy Parade Striped Ribbon to tie up the box

Using the Santa’s Workshop Designer Series Paper and the Santa’s Signpost dies I cut out a Mrs Claus and 3 little elves. I love that we can die cut this paper. I added the die cut pieces to the ribbon with Mini Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Signs of Santa stamp set in Poppy Parade ink and die cut a label. I attached it to the box with a Mini Glue Dot.
