Reindeer Pillow Box treat

Happy Monday friends!! Boy the weekend went by so fast. It rained all weekend! I think there is a storm passing through, or is winter here already?
Well, remember I said that I bought a whole bunch of goodies from J's Knicknacks on Friday? I love everything I bought!! Here's a cute little treat I made by cutting out this pillow box with acetate. The pillow box is a sizzix die and I believe the acetate is actually one of those clear report covers I got from Fisher. The die is from a set of 4 sizzlets called Winter Set #3 and includes dies of a Santa, a Snowman, a Penguin and this cute Reindeer!
I didn't have any Christmas candies, so I stuffed in a pack of sixlets and then wrapped around some 5/8" red grosgrain ribbon. It looked kind of blah, so I added a scallop circle punched out using my marvy mega punch (Kiwi Kiss CS). Final touch was to add some gold cord. I already die cutted and assembled all 4 characters, so I will be posting them as soon as I'm done creating something with them!
Come back tomorrow for another fantastic LCWC! It's a color challenge!
