Today's project is so cute! You'll want to make these for everyone you know! Sometimes when I'm trying to figure out a new box or project I look back on what I've made in the past and figure out how or what can I modify? Is it just the measurements? Should I change up the design a little? That's how I came up with this box. Last year I shared two boxes with tapered ends or tops, I used elements of both of them and modified them to this box, which is pretty darn cute! I used the tapered ends from this cute penguin box and the tapered closure from this cute Halloween box. Both are adorable as they stand but when you combine aspects of them both you can another adorable option!
Of course measurements were also adjusted but we'll get to the measurements in a minute. I used the new Happy Hedgehog Bundle for my box. This is a punch bundle which I LOVE but that little hedgehog is just the cutest, even if he didn't have a punch. The punch is great because it not only punches out the entire hedgehog but it also punched out just his quills......are they quills on a hedgehog? We're calling them quills.
Because you can punch them separately it gives you another opportunity to be creative and add even more dimension. I added my quills on him with some Dimensionals so they really pop! My DSP is the new Daffodil Afternoon package. This DSP you can only earn free with a qualifying Sale-a-Bration order. I love the softer simple patterns on the back of the paper. This fun plaid and the heart patterns are my favorite!
Inside my box I have a Snickers Heart. I found these at my local Walgreens. They sell these individually there. I love that I can just pick up one or two. Let's face it I know I don't need a full bag of candy lying around. Sometimes it's nice to just be able to pick up one or two treats as you need them. On this box either side can be opened so it's easy to get this treat out.
Here's the measurements for the box. Make sure to check out the video for all the details.
