Month: December 2020

When you think of masculine Christmas projects tartan or plaid always jump into my head. So that’s what this month’s challenge is all about at the male room craft challenge – tartan or plaid . I thought about doing something special, and here is what I came up with. 

To start off, I cut the svg file from creative cuts in my Cricut Maker. This file was easy to cut as I did not alter the size anymore. I just had to ungroup the images to be able to cut the shapes in the color of cardstock that I wanted.  This SVG was a pop carousel box. But as I wanted to create my project with the touch of tartan or plaid, I printed down them as pattern papers and glued them over .

What better way to celebrate a special occasion than with this fun Carousel (or Merry Go Round) gift box. The base of the Carousel is a pretty box that you can fill with goodies and treats. You can even make the box by itself for a versatile gift package. The finished Carousel is approximately 8 3/4″ tall by 4 1/2″ wide.
