I found these little treat boxes on the Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator website today. They are made using the Eight Great Greetings stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog. One is done in Kiwi Kiss and tied with the Satin Kiwi Kiss ribbon and the other is Baja Breeze and the Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon. Both of these ribbons are part of my May ribbon share.
The Eight Great Greetings stamp set has something for almost every occasion – Easter, Thanks, Dad, Wedding, Congrats, Birthday, Mother, Shower. You can create treat boxes like these for occasions all year long by changing the color and ribbons and using a stamp from this set.
Here are some birthday treat boxes done in Pacific Point with the Pacific Point striped ribbon – also part of the May ribbon share.
The triangle box is the same box we made earlier this year for Valentine treats – a very easy treat box that doesn’t need adhesive to hold it shut – the ribbon holds it shut at the top. To make one cut your card stock into a rectangle and score it in half – this will be the bottom of the triangle. Then mark the center on either end and scor diagonally across the card stock from the center score to the center mark on each side – you will be making four more score lines forming a diamond shape on your card stock. Now fold in on the score lines and punch a hole where the sides meet to tie the ribbon through. The size of your triangle will depend on the size of card stock that you start with. Add your decoration to the front. Have fun making treat boxes!
I have added a new picture to my side bar – it is a reminder that I will be participating in another Blog Tour on May 15th and 16th. I’ll be with a new group of people and some items will be from the Occasions Mini Catalog and others will be from the main catalog. I hope you will join me.
