Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Tonic Trinket Box


Hi Everybody,


So the other day I added a video using the Tonic Craft Kit 08 and making a card with it.

But since then I have been asked if I could show how to make the box that the kit was designed to do.

And always happy to oblige that is what I have done and here is the video to show you how I made my boxes.

If you are making a stacked drawer set then I would make all the drawers with the same pattern on them so that they look neat and tidy.
Dress the box any way you wish and for mine I have added in some pretty flowers to the top.

This would be ideal to pop a small jewellery gift into for a birthday or Christmas.

More tomorrow ...

Cutting the stags head out with the die makes a statement on the front of your design

You can be in with the chance to add this set to your collection by leaving me a comment at the end of this post. I will draw one name at random from them and the winner will be announced in the post tomorrow.

Tonic Craft Kit 08 - Making a card with the Trinket Box Kit

Hi Everybody,

Today I am showing you my project for the Tonic Craft Kit 08 and I know that it is late this month.

These kits sell out very quickly as they are such good quality so to be sure that you get you then consider a subscription.

This kit is called Trinket Box but I have used it to make a card instead. This is just to show you the versatility of the die set

I used the papers in the kit to make my card and they are really pretty with deep texture.
The links for a subscription are ...
