So here's my 'Handmade Gift' that I created:  A Treat Box Card:



I have seen these fun treat box cards on the Internet and fell in love with them at first sight but never gave them a go as I thought they would be to hard and complicated for me, so I thought 'NO' I'll give it a go and they are soooooooooo easy to make and I was over the moon with the end result!!!

Here's a pic with my tag insert out:

Some more pages lol:



and with the planner folded open:


I created my Christmas Planner by using a plain file folder and folding the bottom up to make my pockets and you can view a video HERE on how to fold the folder!

I downloaded and printed of the planner pages from HERE and I created the titles and printed them out onto some Vanilla cardstock!

I have stamped all my pages using different ornaments from the 'Ornamental Christmas' Stamp Set using Cherry and Olive inks!

These Christmas Planners are so easy to make and I kept my front cover simple as the folder will be opened and closed a lot lol!
