Hello! I hope you are well. I’ve been having fun making lovely lidded gift boxes today. Here’s the first of my Marbled Elegance lidded box…

I love the combination of Real Red and Melon Mambo card, especially with the extra touches of gold! And isn’t that ribbon simply gorgeous?
I kept the decoration to just the top of the box so that the ribbon gets all the attention on the side. My sentiment is from the Hearts of Elegance stamp set…

I recorded a video while I made a second Marbled Elegance lidded box…
