Christmas treat box with Helmar

Happy Wednesday crafty friends.  Cathy here today posting for Helmar...I want to share with you a Chipboard container I decorated for the Holidays...

To start off... Here are 2 of the adhesives I will be using as well as the plain chipboard container..

Here are more of the products used..Craftwork Cards Christmas Cheer Ultimate Collection 


I started out by cutting some pattered paper to fit around the box and on the top of the lid..

The next step is to use the Helmar Craft Glue to hold the pattern paper on..


as well as the cover paper.


Below I used the Tim Holtz Distress ink ~ Vintage Photo, to ink around the edges to give it aged look.


One of my favorite adhesives I used next to glue on the lace ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon is Helmar Fabric Glue



next thing to do was use my Cricut cutting machine and cut out the KaDoodle Bug Designs SVG file!  Christmas Angel Bear and change it out a bit to work with this christmas box.  After each piece was cut, I inked the edges with  Tim Holtz Distress Ink... Rusty Hinge, and put pieces together with Helmar Craft Glue


To embellish I used Helmar Zap Dots to add dimension to the round pop out card stock pieces


Here is the project assembled..  Of course I had to add something for my sweet tooth!!


Here is the box closed...


Here is a side view...



I hope you enjoyed todays' project and that I have inspired you to get your craft on!!
Have a great crafty week!
Your crafty friend..Cathy
