Hi Everyone

Merry Christmas Eve to you all, and a big Merry Christmas for tomorrow too!

CHRISTMAS

(I know, very original but it had to be done!)

Here is my DT entry. These are very cute little boxes that have an acetate window inside so the recipient can see what treat lies inside for them. I'm going to use them as table favours for Christmas day...

and there's a little Christmas message inside as well...
