Yesterday we were invited to a party by a couple who were celebrating 50 years of farming. They had insisted on no gifts, but would appreciate a donation to the Devon Air Ambulance - an organisation that does wonderful work locally, rescuing people from accidents and illness in inaccessible places.
I said to my hubby that a cheque in a boring envelope wasn't much fun, so I'd make something prettier to put it in! I found a tutorial and downloadable template for this "All-in-One Box" and decided to make that.
Here are some pictures.
Here is the video I made, to show the box in action:

Both these sites have the downloadable pdf template and instructions to make this box.
Shoshi that is sooooooooo cool. What a nifty keen idea.
ReplyDeleteSo very cool and so very beautiful!!! What an awesome gift for them. (I have that same box - just done in white, as an experiment - sitting on my table from a while ago.)
ReplyDeleteOh WOW, Shoshi!! What a great idea for this box ... I'll bet that they didn't receive a more beautiful check that the one you gave them It is was so lovely of you to include links to my blog and tutorial (although totally unnecessary!). You did a terrific job with this. These little boxes are addicting ... :)
