This is what it looks like inside. I used some cardstock scraps to line the bottom of the box in a coordinating color. I also figured out how to fold a dollar bill into a bow tie today! I added a snowflake brad to that bottom piece so it would hold the bill in place.

Pop Up Gift box

I can't believe it has been over a month since I have had time to do anything creative!!

Well, now I am working fast and furious to finish up a bunch of these pop up gift boxes to put money in for all our nieces and nephews.

All the paper is from Basic Grey Figgy Pudding Collection. I used 12x12 paper, cut it down to 8.5x11. I used the 1 inch strip from the 11" side for the band that holds the box closed. (all of the paper is double sided) I used the 3.5" strip to make embellishments on the band, and make little gift tags for the boxes.

I have a lot of the snowflake lever punches, and used them to make embellishments on the bands as well.

This one is my favorite so far. I love the colors.
