April 2023 Christmas Card Challenge

The theme is Boxes!

Keyword: CCC23APR

[yellowrose46]

I was just making a test box for Easter treats for Sunday school kids, and thought I may as well use a Christmas theme. It will be awhile before I post another box (or card) for the April theme.

The very last of the pine cone cards I've been making lately. I didn't realise it would take me in April, I'm finally ahead (a bit!!).

I've had another redo of the card, it now looks like this!

I love your work!

My second box for this month's challenge. I have cut out 3 more, so that will give me 5 boxes. My remaining 5 will be cards, not boxes.
