More Twelve Days of Christmas - Day 3

Welcome to ANOTHER day of  Graphic 45 The Twelve Days of Christmas!

ETA: Thank you everyone for all of the wonderful comments! Reading how much you all LOVE Graphic 45 just makes my day! Also, thanks for the folks at G45 for providing most of the goodies for the prize pack! They were so generous with me, and now I can pay it forward!

I created a 12x12 box of cards, filled with twelve cards! Each card contains a stamped image from the Graphic 45 12 Days of Christmas stamp set, and each set of three cards showcases a different technique! This project was taught by Graphic 45 at various workshops and trade shows. Now, it is available for you, complete with printable project sheets!

To see the first six cards, click HERE. To see the second set of six cards, click HERE. I am also giving away this prize pack to one lucky winner!! This prze pack is worth OVER $100 Retail. And it contains all three of my - hard to find - wood mount Christmas stamps!

Leave a comment on any one of the posts from December 14th through December 20th (I will have some EXTRA G45 goodies to share the rest of the week!), and I will draw a RANDOM winner. Leave a comment EVERY day to increase your chances! What a fantastic Christmas present for yourself!

My assignment for this card set was to: use Graphic 45 papers as each card base, use The Twelve Days of Christmas stamp set, and incorporate a different technique into each set of three cards. Oh, yes, and to keep the retail cost below $50! Easy, right?! {grin}

Here is the 12x12 box that I created to hold the 12 cards!

I used the Graphic 45 12x12 Matchbook Box. The box is wrapped with papers...

And tied up with ribbon and string!

The entire box is covered with paper (you need eight sheets of paper to do the entire box).

I added a clear plastic sheet to the opening. Now the cards will stay put!

Paper dividers create 6x6 inch spaces to store cards and envelopes.

Here is what it looks like empty...

And filled.

You could do more decorating to the inside of the box if you wished. I needed to keep the cost down, so did not add paper to the sides of the box tray.

This would make the perfect gift...or you could use the cards and box to decorate your home. The box is handy for storing the cards away for next year!

To create this box, there is a supply list and full-color, step-by-step directions. Click here for the project sheet. TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS BOX PROJECT SHEET.

I hope you enjoyed this bonus set of cards and box!

Make sure you return on December 21st for the PRIZE DRAW! (I have projects posting each day this week, so don't miss those projects!) Leave a comment on any post (or all the posts) December 14-20th for a chance to win!

ETA: I had a question about the glitter that I used on some of the the cards.

The brand I used is from Elizabeth Crafts. It is called Warm Diamond. I also used their adhesive sheets for the adhesive prior to sprinkling on the glitter.
