There’s a bit of a story about the template for this box, which I downloaded from a scrapbooking forum; when I cut it on my Silhouette, it fell to bits, as it cut along the fold lines instead of perforating them. I was gutted as it was just what I was looking for.
I am very much a novice with the Silhouette, but after several attempts, I worked out how to do the perforations – I am dead chuffed with myself!
I have also saved myself a bit of money, as I was planning on buying a Sizzix Bigz die that makes a very similar bag/box.
I’ve kept it pretty plain, just adding a textured paper strip, stickers from Poundland (from last year, I’m not sure if they have any this year) and a bit of faux stitching, all I need to do now is pop some eggs inside.
