I made this little 3x3x3 box from a pattern of a box that I had laying around in my storage room. I wanted a box that had a flip top. It is punched on all four sides with a Martha Stewart PAOTP punch (Stained Glass Pattern) and decorated with holly leaves from one of the punches from my Tonic sets. The holly berries are made with Stickles. In addition, I made a "collar" for the tea light inside by cutting a 3x3 square, tracing the base of the tea light in the middle of this piece of paper and cutting a circle out. I then dropped the tea light into the circle to use as a collar so the tea light wouldn't slide around and dropped the whole ensemble into the box. This also enables the user to pull the tea light out, open its base and change the battery when needed. I topped it off with the Spellbinders poinsettia dies and followed Kittie Caracciolo's tutorial on making the poinsettia, which can be found here: http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kitti...-tutorial.html
