Merry Fish-mas



Today over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations our theme is "water".  With Christmas in July being a popular, I went with a Christmas goody favor box with a Christmas theme.

This was a bit tedious to create but I love how it turned out and how the vellum gives it a "fishtank" feel.


Hope you like the little goody "bag" I created and will join us over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations with your WATER creations.
Instructions/Techniques:
1. Cut Party Favor Box from crumb cake 
2. Cut circle in middle of front panel 
3. Cut circles from red cardstock and layer on front panel- stamp sentiment around circle 
4. Cut square and stamp image on vellum cardstock 
5. Color backside of vellum with copic markers, adhere to inside of box inside circle 
6. Stamp fish on white cardstock, cut out and adhere to front of box, apply glossy accents 
7. Assemble box using Scor-tape 
8. Fill with chocolate kisses or other candy.
