Just Us Girls Week 9 ... Template Challenge

Welcome to the 9th challenge presented by "Just Us Girls"!

Are you ready for a 3-D / Template Challenge?


'Tis the season of gift giving! With MANY Holidays right around the corner such as Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Christmas, etc... the girls & I would like to see your best Holiday decorated gift box/bag made from a template for that special someone!

You don't need to own a template to play, here are a few links with FREE templates: Splitcoast Stampers and Papertrey Ink.

How to Play: You need to upload your project using this week's challenge to your online blog or public photo gallery. Leave a link that goes directly to your project in the Mr. Linky form at the bottom of this post. If you upload to online galleries, please also use the keyword or tag, JUGS9. After you post to Mr. Linky, you can also leave us a comment here.

Deadline to be considered for "Chic of the Week" will be 9:00 PM EST on Thursday, December 3rd. Our top pick "Chic of the Week" will be announced on Friday morning following the deadline. (You may still post to the Mr. Linky after the deadline, you project just won't be considered for the "Chic of the Week" spot.)

And now, "Just Us Girls" presents a little inspiration to get you started!

Blog Candy: Link your creation up on this site in the Mr. Linky (below this post) to be entered for a chance to win the little offering from me pictured below! I made a "petite" sized Fold N' Go gift box to hold some ornament tags & embellishments along with a few other goodies that I would like to share and the opportunity to be the next Chic of the Week!! Show us your best Holiday decorated gift box/bag for that special someone and don't forget to provide us with a DIRECT link on your blog or gallery to our Mr. Linky.Easy Right? We can't wait to see what you create. Thanks for playing along with Just Us Girls!

Edited to add (Nov 30) - Looks like Mr. Linky has been occasionally misbehaving and disappearing - keep checking back - he'll be back - sorry for the inconvenience - we DO want to see your projects so don't forget to come back to JUGS! (We have some awesome blog candy for ya!)
