Tall and Narrow bottle boxes used for Christmas Gift Packaging

Tall and Narrow Gift Boxes created with Cameo Silhouette and Cricut Explore


Ok, so......Christmas is really over. Right?  Well,  I still have gifts to deliver when I return to work from vacation (for various reasons). And I wanted to use a packaging that was a little different the usual gift bag/box.  So, I set out to make a holiday box for hand lotions I picked up and still had not wrapped.  Easy right?  Wrong!   Every box I had previously made was too short, too small to fit and I really didn't want to spend much time designing a "box" when there are tons of them out there to choose from.  Well, my mind and talents weren't working well and I couldn't accomplish the task easily.  I always seem to want something more than "ordinary" (I guess).  Nevertheless,  I finally decided on a idea and went to my handy dandy Cricut Explore (Anna Griffin, and box it up cartridge design) and Cameo Silhouette (Samantha Walker 3d bottle box image) to accomplish the task.   I loved how they turned out and only need to add a tag for the finishing touch.

I thought this would be a great video project to share.  Thanks for watching.
