Christmas trinket box and rosette tree/Home for the Holidays Blog Hop

Hello there hoppers! Lynne here with a little display made up of a trinket box I made using  the Gypsy Soul Lasercuts Treasure Chest and Studio75's Christmas Gift paper set. I was privileged to be invited to participate in this blog hop, and I know there'll be a lot of awesome projects for you to see along the way! Have fun!


I love to fussy-cut, so after I covered the chipboard pieces with patterned paper, I added cutout images for interest and dimension . The berries and little latch were from my stash.


I made a loop bow out of strips of paper for the top, inked the edges and added some tulle. I then topped it off with a bird image cut from the paper.



I purchased a tree made with rosette folds somewhere over the summer and used it as a pattern for this one, folding an 18" long piece that was about 2-1/2' wide for the bottom layer, then getting a little smaller for the two other ones/ I used a holly border punch before folding them They were glued to a skewer, then into a thread spool which I also covered with paper. A chunky gold bead and a white plastic snowflake finished it off.



I like soft colours, even at Christmas, so this project with these papers was perfect for me, and was a lot of fun to put together. I hope you enjoyed seeing it and maybe even found a little inspiration here....wishing you a wonderful Christmas season xx
