Christmas 10 Week Countdown Week 5



Over the next 10 weeks I'll share a new and fun Christmas idea all the way up to December 18, only a week away from Christmas!  Of course you can adapt all of these ideas to any holiday or occasion. Today's super cute box is the perfect size box for a truffle or other sweet treat!  This little box measures 2"x2" and is 1 1/4" tall.  
I used the Festive Farmhouse DSP to add a belly band around it.  I added a tag using the Takeout Treats Stamp Set.  I punched out the greeting with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch then layered it onto a 1 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch.  I added a little Burlap Ribbon and added the entire thing a Pretty Label Punch on the belly band.
 In my box I have one amazing and delicious Scotchmallow from See's Candy.  You could put any of their candies in this box.  The belly band comes off and the box opens from the top. These boxes are small enough you could make a bunch of them easily for a party, class treats or any other occasion!

To make this box you'll need a piece of cardstock that measures 8 1/2"x5 3/4".  On the 8 1/2" side score at 2", 4", 6" and 8".  On the 5 3/4" side score at 2", 3 1/4" and 5 1/4".  You'll trim along the score lines as indicated in the picture.  The pink tab on the side indicates where to put your adhesive.  Once you have that tab adhered, the bottom folds up with adhesive on the final piece and the top folds in.  Super cute!

Thanks for looking, see you soon!!!!
