WWYS #147- Beachy Little Christmas

For the very first time I am submitting an entry into 

'What Will You Stamp #147 / / Beachy Little Christmas'. 

My top of the charts favourite stamp set from the Occasions Catalogue is 'Beachy Little Christmas' and I had to join in on the fun with this Challenge!

As per normal for me, I have made a couple of creations, and I am making the most of this stamp set.

A tall gift box and gift tag for my husband.

I wanted to make a tall box and found one on Pinterest, designed by Sam Hammond aka Pootles. Click here for Sam's tutorial.

Before assembling my box; I added 'Tear & Tape Adhesive' to the bottom of the box. I stamped seashells just above and on the tape line. 

Then I had a little visit to the beach, removed the protective tape paper and dipped the bottom of the box into the sand. 

Cute, hey?

The gift tag was half prepared - lucky the WWYS Challenge came along this week! 

The palm tree was a remnant from a Blog Hop from about 3 weeks ago, and I didn't want to throw it out. I added the surf board next to the sentiment and topped it with some 'Wood Textures DSP'.

All my images are coloured with 'Stampin' Blends Markers'.

I had so much fun creating this gift box & gift tag.
Thankyou so much for visiting my blog, and I hope you have 'A Beachy Little Christmas' - wherever you are. D x
