SVG Cutting Files Monthly Challenge

I know it doesn't seem possible but it is time for a new monthly challenge over at SVG Cutting Files. The challenge this month is Christmas treat.  So this is perfect to help you get some of your Christmas treats made!

For my project I used the Holiday Present Slider card set for the penguin and reindeer, I just didn't use the envelope part.  I sized these at about 2.5" wide.  I put them on the Standard Gable Box sized at what it came on the mat at.  The ribbon is some I have had forever...it is from Stampin Up. 

Winter Character Boxes

So I just have to say I LOVE these boxes!!!  They are so cute and super easy to make!  These would be perfect if you have to do a lot, they go together so well and are just adorable!!  

I cut them at the size they came onto my mat in Silhouette version 3.  I added inking and foam tape for added dimension.  The set comes with 4 but I did two penguins, I couldn't decide which one I liked better...the grey or the black?

You can get this awesome cut file in the SVG Cutting Files store on Friday here.
