Challenge#33 at Crafting with Dragonflies

Crafting with Dragonflies are asking us to create a box - a specific type of box of course: a tissue box! So the Challenge #33 is to find a template (just Google, believe me there are lots!), create your box and photograph it, and enter it HERE!  Don't forget to let us know where you found the instructions or if you made one from scratch by yourself, so instructions for the rest of us who are not as clever!

My box can be found on Splitcoaststampers - just search for tissue box. It works with the small square box by Kleenex.  I used Kraft card for construction, and SU Coordinations embossed with a TH folder with gears, and then lightly sanded to bring out the core.  I was making it for my husband so I wanted a masculine feel, and an unfinished look.

who are offering a prize of 7 free digi's! WOW!


I coloured up my image using Copics and just adhered it to the front of the box, as I didn't want to add any embellies to something going into the workshop. I wanted it to be found easily though, hence the colour!


This is what it looks like before the box slides over the top of the tissue box.

So, why not go and made yourself a drink, and have a look at the rest of the DT inspiration (stunning work as usual) and then have a go yourself!

I will enter this in the following:
