Christmas Pillow Boxes

You are probably aware that I do love making 3D projects and, following the Pillow Boxes I showed you the other day made for a 50th birthday, I was asked to make some more but this time for Christmas. I am entering these for the Simply Stampin' challenge which is 'Leaves' and you are allowed to enter 3D items, as well as cards, which is right up my street!
I won't bore you and go into huge detail but supplies used were Old Olive and Whisper White cardstock, Soft Holly wheel, Old Olive Satin ribbon and stamp pad, Old Olive and Real Red Stampin' Write markers and a sprinkling of Dazzling Diamonds. The holly leaves were made with the Oval and Circle punch and the berries were covered with Crystal Effects and Dazzling Diamonds and the sentiment is from Beautiful Season coloured with markers and punched with the Curly Label punch. Oh and of course, the Pillow Box die!!!
