My Project
I used Spellbinders Square Bracket Edge Box and then just decorated the lid with Marianne Designs Swedish Crystal snowflakes. The boxes hold a couple of Thornton's chocolates which I wrapped in tissue paper so that the boxes can be re-used by the recipients without being chocolate streaked! I always forget about this set of dies but they are really very useful for small gifts.
For the wine bottle tags I used Core'dinations card stock in teal. I ran some white card through the GC with Crafters Companion Bebunni Christmas Sentiments folder. ( A snip from teh stall "Every Crafts A Pound" at the NEC.) The snowflakes are SB Create A Flake Four. I just added a ribbon bow and then to all the snowflakes I added pearls from my stash. I wrapped the boxes of chocolates and fancy biscuits in white paper and decorated with the same snowflakes.
Well I must take my leave of you so that we can get ready to go. Hope you are all well and having a good weekend

How very beautiful your table is going to look with these lovely boxes & icy snowflakes. That die made a wonderful decorative edge, and I love your snowflake trim. Hope you will have a super happy day enjoying all the kinfolks. I liked the term "faux Christmas". As long as you're with family, it will be Christmas all the way. TFS & Hugs
