Suit Case Gift Box

Hello my lovely crafters.

Welcome back to my little crafty cave :D today I am sharing with you something a little different which is one of the makes I did while I was at the crop last weekend. This is something which would be an ideal gift box for the man in your life for any occasion.

A Suit Case Gift Box

This design is not my original idea but I have cased it from another fellow demo. I shall of cause in the next few days or so maybe next week do a tutorial for you all so you can have a go at making this yourself :).

Before I go on to show you more pictures of this I will list the products used to make this wonderful little piece.

Simply Score Board

2" Circle Punch

Basic Black CardStock

Early Espresso CardStock

Chocolate Chip CardStock

Urban Underground Designer Series Paper (Retired)

So there we have the list of materials needed to make the Suit Case Gift Box, now lets take a look at it in more pictures.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing this little beauty and are looking forward to seeing the tutorial so you can make your very own. The overall size of the box is 6" Long, 3 1/4 Deep, 5 3/4" Long. To give you an idea you can fit a Stampin' Up Ink Pad inside and will still have some room.

Don't forget you can purchase all products linked from MY STORE 24/7 and they will be shipped straight to you. You can also use this month's hostess code 6HYKZY3Z on a £25 minimum spend order excluding shipping and get a free gift from me.
