Hey there! Happy Saturday! I enjoyed bringing you a project on Saturday a few weeks ago for WCMD, so I decided I might possibly make this a regular thing in the future.
I'm super excited about today's project!! It's something I've never made before, a book box. I had the idea because of my Murder She Wrote book club! I have a best friend in North Carolina who I do this weekly book club with and we had chosen this particular book for October because of it's Halloween theme. However, we haven't finished our last book so...looks like we won't start this one until November. I wanted to send her the book as a gift and I of course needed some cute packaging. I love that I can make my own gift boxes using Stampin' Up! products! In today's tutorial I share some tips on how I come up with measurements for custom boxes.
