Square tag box and Notecards and Tags

Hello on this dry warm day.  I think Summer is going to be a scorcher this year.  Great for being inside and crafting, yah.
I just realised I haven't taken pictures of everything I have been making so I will have to try and replica those things to show you.  Good little presents, quick and easy, just the way I like it.  Anyway on to today, I have made a tag box to give to someone special as a very early Christmas present.
 My box with window sheeting on the lid so you can see in.
 Some of the 3" x 3" cards and the inside of the box
 Tags to add cord or ribbon to or use as Christmas bookmarks
 Yep, the typical little tags to quickly put on a pack of homemade biscuits etc
 I made two different types of Christmas card/tags so there were some super plain as well
And my box closed again.  If you would like me to do a picture tutorial just let me know but I will give you some measurements as well.  I am getting quite good at making lots of different type and sizes of boxes, just practise.  I made some boxes to put some rocky road in and somehow I had three different types, I think I was very tired as I was trying to make them.  They just kept turning out differently.  I was lucky and no-one that saw them realised they were all mistakes as I am still yet to perfect the box!!!
