Hi there, I thought I would share a picture of a project I made using one of my new favorite sets from Spellbinders (smile). I did that on purpose!! Yes, they are all my favorites! I just thank you for letting me gush and show you the tools I’ve been working with over the last couple of months. It was crafty torture not being able to show or utter a peep so again thanks for indulging me. I always struggle for something to put gifts in like t-shirts, sweaters and other clothing that needs to be wrapped and not just stuck in a gift bag. I have an altered box that took less than an hour to make. Cut, cut, cut, glue, glue, glue and then I was done.
My box features a couple of sets. The triangles all belong to Spellbinders Nested Pennants and Spellbinders Nested Lacey Pennants; so I layered plain triangles over the lacey triangles. The rest of the embellishment was done with Banner Basics One and Two. The final decoration was from Spellbinders Antiquities.
Simple, I tell you!! By the way, since the Lacey Pennants have such a long edge, I used the “lace” from the edge as borders on the box. The box I used was a simple paper mache box ($2.49 at Michaels, I think) and simply covered with coordinating paper and added a door knob that I purchased at Hobby Lobby.

Fabulous project, Becca! I think those just may be my favorite sets in the release!
Love it! What a wonderful idea. You used the dies wonderfully! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Becca,
Gorgeous box…Love the Paris nights paper xx
Really like your projects. I haven’t won anything in the blog hop reveal. So many things on my wish list.
wow..This is gorgeous Becca.Great idea to put gifts in.
Another wonderful project, Becca.
Sure wish my mind worked like yours does :o)
Beautiful – I bet everyone keeps the boxes you make – they are like receiving a second gift!
Hugs, Candy
Becca, there is no doubt why you are in such demand to be on the design teams of these companies. Your work is incredibly stunning every time.
Thanks for sharing.
OMG! This is absolutely beautiful!!! I love it and can’t wait to put something together of my own. Of course, I don’t have these dies, but I can just imagine all the possibilities of other cuts. Becca, you provide so much inspiration – THANK YOU!!!
you are amazing – very classy!

Such a gorgeous creation, Becca! Love every detail of it – the colour, the classy choice of papers and all those beautiful new Spellbinder accents!
BEAUTIFUL. you have such a creative way with things.
Miss Becca, You are so tricksey, I love this box. Just beautiful and you can gush about your new toys any time you want girlie. You make me smile.
Have a beautiful day.
Hugs and Blessings,
Deb
I agree, the box is like a gift in itself … in fact, forget the sweater, just give me that FABULOUS box! :) So cool the way you utilized five sets of Spellbinders dies! Your projects have helped me see many of my SB sets in a new light! Thank you! :)
Becca, I love this project. I have yet to find anything you’ve done that I don’t like. And I thought I didn’t really like those banners. HA.
Thanks for another geat project!!!
What a gorgeous project, Becca! I know once I make something it’s hard to keep quiet about it! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow amazing project, I must admit to using bottle boxes for gifts such as scarves etc last christmas but I like your idea much better.
WOW, this is totally different from your usual projects but equally as stunning x
One word Becca…. WOW!
You always have such an eye for color and beautiful projects. Thanks for sharing.
Gush away! I love seeing your creations AND hearing the “voice” of a fellow crafter who gets as excited as I do about a new toy! Now, if only I could translate that excitement into gorgeous, completed projects like you do! ;-)
I could see a bottle of wine in that gorgeous box of yours Becca. Beautifully done. I have to look into those boxes and those pennant dies are on my wish list. As always Becca, TFS!!! and for the inspiration. :-D
WAUW what an awesome project, you´ve done here. It really looks great Becca and I agree, it looks far better to wrap a gift, than all these ordinary giftboxes. This is a gift in itself I think, and anyone would be thrilled to recieve a gift in one of these. You´re amazing and always have such amazing ideas too hun.
Becca, your work is just totally outstanding, thanks for sharing this with everyone.
Wow Becca this is stunning and I adore those spellbinders you’ve used. Something else going onto my wish list. Hugsx ChrisB
What a great way to make a plain boring box something special!
Simply fabulous, Becca!!! You are showcasing this release wonderfully! Love how you used the banners on this container.
Becca….honestly, this is so amazing it made me gasp! Took my breath away. Where do you find your inspiration? I am a professional writer who rarely gets writer’s block but can always count on designer’s block! How I look forward to your creations each day! Thank you for the joy and God bless you!
That is beautiful, Becca! I often wonder how long it takes to complete some of these projects. This one must have taken hours!
Oh my goodness this is absolutely gorgeous
OMG – this is the best thing i’ve ever seen I recon you could showcase all the new released dies single handedly and come up with something different everytime you’ve made me really need those spellbinder dies..
Magnificent

What an amazing creation Becca, but then ALL your creations are.
I love your gift box a gift all on its on.
Really~really beautiful idea…and I was in MIchael’s yesterday and saw these glass BUTTERFLYknobs for $1 and could not think of a thing I needed them for….sigh!!
What a fabulous gift box! And you know it won’t be thrown away, it will be used again, and again. You are super talented!!
Oh Becca, I wish you could toss me some of your design talent, stunning gift box. Blessings, Lori m
OMG Becca, I just love the box that you covered. When I first saw the pennant dies I wasn’t sure if they would be anything that I would use, but looking at your fantastic project I’ve changed my mind.
VERY NICE, Becca!!!! I don’t know HOW TALL your box is, BUT MAYBE tall enough to hold knitting needles!!!!!!! Your box is REALLY SMART LOOKING!!!!!!!!!!! :) LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
Brilliant! (As usual!) This is wonderful. I have loved every single one of your projects with the new releases. Thank you sooooo much for sharing them.
Becca, you are the reason I check my email!! Your creations are always so beautiful. I send all my crafter friends to your site for inspiration. Your style is exactly my vision of what I someday want to achieve. You are my Style Guru !!! Thank you for sharing yourself with all of us. You truly Bless our socks off!!!
Becca, this is a gorgeous box. The creative side of your brain must
be racing twenty-four hours a day!!
Thanks for sharing,
Cheryl
Very classy! Anyone who receives THAT won’t even expect a gift inside. The box IS the gift!
Great idea. Also if anyone is so inclined it would be great for a liquor bottle as well.
I love this…what a great idea to alter a wine box! Love all of your ideas!
Wow, and when I first saw the pennant dies, I didn’t think they would be something I’d use. Not now!! This box is bodacious! LOL.
This is superb. I need to start using some of my 40% and 50% off coupons for some of those paper mache boxes!
See…this is what I am talking about. AMAZING!! This can be for a man or woman. I love that. The papers are so stunning. Great work!
I can see I will be broke after this new SB release. :)
Hugs
Becca, this is absolutely FABULOUS!!! WOW!!! ;-)
Absolutely Stunning.
I always look forward to see what you come up with next. Becca, you have the most wonderful ideas and what an inspiration you are. I wish I had just 1/2 the talent you have.
Thanks for sharing your creativity with us.
One ?. Is that box big enough; say for a regular size bottle of wine?
Michaels and JoAnn’s both will except other stores coupons :} but Hobby Lobby will not. :{
I just used today a JoAnn’s 50% off coupon at Michaels for regular priced item.
Colleen
Oh Wow is that a stunning way to present a gift, it’s a gift unto itself, amazing work once again!
Oh WOW . This is so amazingly beautiful!! I shouted out loud when I saw this . Becca you did it again! The banner dies were NOT on my wish list. Well, that certainly changed with this box . I want them!
What a Fabulous Gift Box!!! So elegant and stately looking.
Your projects are truly amazing. Just when I thought I’ve seen the most beautiful card you come up with another beautiful creation. This box is just stunning. I love all your work. “Thanks for all the inspiration. God bless you.
Becca,
What a great project. You took something ( ie the pennants ) and did something with them I would not have thought of. Kudo’s for your originality and I love the papers you used as well too. Well done!
You are just amazingly creative!
I love it…the colors, the design. Those quick/fun projects always put a smile on my face. TFS
That is stunning Becca again so envious of your talents. Anne
Becca you have got to stop showing us all these projects ( just kidding) just when I think I can get by with out this die or that you come and show me how I could really use it , and the fact that I read that these dies arent even going to be shipping till March is madness since I want to make all your projects NOW. since your in with spellbinders tell them not to show us the dies and what can be done with them till they are on the shelfs. Oh and tell them you should get half of everything they sell cause most of us by them because of the way You use them. I know that the other ladies do a great job too with their projects , But yours are always a MUST MAKE.
On a side not for any of you ladies reading this post check out and sign up for AC Moore I found them in Ga when I was there and they have the dies on line and in the stores if you have one ( I do not in Michigan) but get the email sent to me and they always have 50% and 60% off coupons so even though the dies are more it still is cheaper even with shipping
p.s. not saying don’t buy from spellbinders just when you have a long wish list it helps
Wow, very nice! Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Becca, that is stunning. I thought the pennants were sets I could live without, but your project changed my mind. Great box and I love the fleur de lis.
A STUNNING project!
Is there a bottle of French wine inside? So perfect!
beautiful project. So elegant.
Fabulous!!! What a talent you are.
irene
A door knob? Who woulda thunk? So cute! I can do this! I just can’t thinkj like this! You are amazing, PaperGrace!
Beautiful and such a unique idea.
Oh,Becca, you have such a lovely creative mind!
Thank you for sharing it. I love your blog.
A doorknob! who’dav thought!!
Love your box.
Love Spellbinders!!
This is beautiful. Can you share the pattern for the box? TFS.
Amazing…simply amazing…Love it!!! Thanks for sharing….Be blessed…
Oh my goodness, this is just AWESOME!!!!!! Is all that I can say.
I’m sure I would be thinking the box was the gift instead of whatever was inside the box!! It would become a part of my decorations!! Too cute, Becca!!
Spellbinders has to love you!! (I hope as much as we do)
Hugs
You are truly blessed with an amazing gift. Your creativity never ceases to amaze me. I love it when I get to my email and find another post from you-it’s like Christmas- wondering what special treasure I will find when I open it.
Thank you for sharing your creations, you have blessed me.
This is gorgeous and so clever. Thanks for sharing.
BECCA BECCA YOU HAVE REALLY OUTDONE YOURSELFTHIS TIME.
WHAT A GREAT IDEA. ONLY YOU COULD COME UP WITH SOMETHING

AS GOOD AS YOU.
CYNTHIA
ooooo me likey!
this is sooo me! Great color palette and love the use of the Banner dies. Yup. It’s a winner!
Thanks for sharing
You are showing how creative one can be for other items as well. I love this banner set, and think it will be a great addition to the die stash! I can only imagine how difficult it has been to use all the new products but not to be able to say anything or show anyone what you have been working on! But we are all the lucky ones, because now you can! Great project!
Fabulous gift box, Becca! Great for giving something to the guys.
Becca,
This is absolutely elegant. Definitely on the top of my list of favorites!!! I am a huge fan of black & white first off, and adore anything in the french theme. So this is totally one of my favorite projects!!!!! This project would definitely fit into my home decor, so I am definitely going to have to steal your design. Hope you don’t mind. But, it looks as if it won’t be for a while yet. Has anyone said when they will actually be available for purchase?
Marcie
Becca how very clever of you, I think this is just the best lot of Spellbinders that have been put out. Love the project but notice that there is no tutorial for it. would love to see one.
Hugs Trish.
Well, I’ll be! You make everything a whole lot more special when you put your hand to it, Becca! Wonderful use of those pendant dies!
I like the box you could use it for a bottle of wine or anything that is a bottle. I love it and it look so simple to make. Thank you for sharing.
Delama
all I can think of is WOW!, Jaw hanging to the floor, this is amazing!
Becca this is fantastic – not only do you come up with stunning creations but the colours and choice of papers you use are second to none. I loved these dies when revealed and have them on my wishlist (ha ha along with the rest!!) Roll on March….
Hugs

WOW Becca, you have excelled yourself! What a wonderful way to use those banners. You are just so creative, what a gift you have!!!!
LOL Eileen
What a clever idea! Thanks for sharing! I am loving these new spellbinders!
Would it hold a bottle of wine? Love, love, love this.
Becca this is a great idea, and beautifully done. Ladies Hobby Lobby has their paper machie’ on sale this week 50%. this box was $3.87 before discount.
Love this! Had my eye on those new pennant dies and now they are a must!!
