Elsa's Ice Castle Card in a Box & Gift Tag


Happy Friday!

I know I said in yesterday's post I was done with Winter projects but I had this one on the go for the last week and just put the finishing touches on it a couple nights ago!  I hope you don't mind - it's for a good cause I promise - my Niece is turning the big 3 next week and she is Frozen OBSESSED (as I am sure every little girl is!).

I wanted to make a card that was a little unique to some of the others I've seen out there and as usual the idea came when they always do...when I'm trying to sleep LOL.  I envisioned Elsa's beautiful ice castle and I think the finished product turned out pretty darn close.  My validation on kid related projects almost always comes from one of my boys so when I asked Griffin what he thought it was and he immediately said, "Elsa's Castle!" I knew I had a winner :)  I wish you could see it in person - it sparkles and shimmers just like real ice!  Given as a gift it would be a nice touch to add in a battery operated tea light; the castle REALLY comes to life then!

And the best part of the ice castle? If you guessed that its a Card in a Box, you'd be right!  I made the tag as an addition so I could write her Birthday message on the back of it instead of cluttering the walls of the castle.

As I'm fairly certain that there might be a few other little girls out there that might enjoy Elsa's Castle as much as I'm hoping my Niece does, I thought I would make a Template and Tutorial available.

Are you going to do a video or offer this as a project? It really is adorable and every Frozen girl will want one.
