What!?! Winter wonderland??? I don't know about you, but where I live, it's anything but chilly! So while I hide from the sun in my house, how about some winter projects to cool us down? This cool box template from Kelleigh Ratzlaff will be released this thursday at the Digichick Boutique. It is one of TWO templates that will be in the pencil case download. I decided to dress this pencil case up in winter clothes for the Caardvarks challenge.
Also from the Digichick Boutique, I used the Cafe Latte digi kit for the background designer papers. This kit is loaded with great papers and elements. Including a cutie pie of a coffee cup that would be a great addition to this packaging if I wanted to box up a custom hot cocoa mix to hang on the neighbor's door...just extend the ribbon loop at the top to turn it into a door hanger. With the smaller ribbon loop, this box would hang happily on a christmas tree branch.
More details....the die cut snowflakes are from the Christmas cheer cricut cartridge and the swirl is handcut from vintage book print. Inking, stitching and pinking sheers give a nice homey feel and the silver mini garland, fruit punch stickles and iridescent snow give this project a wintery shimmer! Leftover red patterned paper make the perfect paper curls.
Thanks so much for stopping by today my creative friends. Here's wishing you some cool winter wishes!Supplies:

THANK YOU for sending that cool winter's breeze this way! It IS hot, hot, hot today! Love all that you mixed up here AND what a fantastic idea for a door hanger! But, I really cannot think about hot cocoa right now. Instead, I am going to make a snow angel with your blissfully frozen snowflakes that adorn your winter wonderland creation! :>
