I recently saw a tissue box cover at a shoebox swap. It looked fabulous so I did my best to make something similar. I measured the top of the box and added 2 inches for the drop. I also made the same piece for the bottom of the box. The SU scalloped eyelet border punch was used on white eyelet and taped to edge of the lids, then SU red and white ribbon was taped over the edge. A bow was glued to the middle of the front to hang a stamped piece from. the "Presents for You" PI was stamped on an MFT perfect panel, this and the mat were cut with oval from Creative Memories. The image was colored with copics and the white trim is Liquid applique. Twe tiny holes were pierced in the top of the oval, yellow embroidery floss was threaded through the heart button, then the oval and then through the ribbon bow and back out to be tied off in a bow on top of the button. This oval can be removed and replaced with another panel stamped for the next season.
