House Mouse Monday Challenge

I look forward to seeing what the challenge is on House Mouse Monday but my heart sank a little when the challenge said "anything but a card". I make cards all the time lately so I didn't have a clue what to do. So... I hadn't used my Scor Pal yet and I've had it several weeks! I looked on the Scor Pal site and found this mini pizza box, really simple to make but looks very effective.

I may make a few more to put Xmas gifts into!

Sorry the photos aren't very good but it's gone very dark here, think we are in for a downpour!

Here is my mini pizza box

This is the top view

And here is the side view


I used a piece of pink Bazill cardstock for the base. The paper for the top square is K& Co and I added the paper lace ribbon around the sides. I then cut out the photo corners using my Wizard ( I use this for all my die cuts). And then added the little gems. The main image has been coloured in with promarkers and some little gems have also been added to the tea cup. I then added the same paper lace ribbon to all the sides.

Voila!! :0)
