Today I am sharing 2 gift boxes complete with ribbon and bows that I made using nothing more than paper and tape!  Thanks to Jacki (a fellow 
Gingerwoodie) for sending me to this 
http://picasaweb.google.com/wyobart website for the instructions to make these boxes.  I do not know the owner of the website other than her name is Susie.  These boxes are so fun to make and absolutely stunning in my opinion!  To make the 2 boxes shown, I used papers from 
DCWV (winter and Christmas) packs.  The nice thing about using these packs is that every paper 
cooridinates!

 Here is a lime green box, with plaid lid, and polka dot ribbon/bow.

 This one is a cranberry red, with green 
patterened lid, and polka dot ribbon/bow.

And here is a close up of the bows.  These boxes end up being 4 x 4 inches - just the perfect size for my hand made Christmas ornaments I am making for my daycare children.
