The delightful Dresser and Advent Accessory Gift Box Die Set is another of the fabulous launches for the Tonic Studios Birthday Week!
This is a very large die set with 51 dies and can be used to make a dresser with various types of decoration, an advent calendar and numerous other 3D boxes. You can also see how I made a different dresser and adapted the dies to make a 3 drawer box in my video here
Some of the beautiful lattice panels can also be used in card making.
