Fancy Treat Boxes-Christmas

Snowman and Elf Fancy Favor Treat Box

Well I finally got two of the four complete of this set.  Are they not sweet?  Sorry about being so slow lately in posting but have been kine of lazy and just laying around recovering. Went to the doctors yesterday and lost all the water weight plus seven pounds more so am on top of the world right now.

But to get back to my projects these are cases from several places but mostly from Sandy Haines, I think that is how you spell her last name. I changed the hat on the snowman and the ears and collor on the elf.  They are not real big but it is a good size goodie box and would look great with either candy canes or candy inside. Hope you enjoy making these as much as I did let me know your comments, thanks.

Christmas Matchbox Treat Boxes

I just love using the matchbox die to make these boxes.  Here are some pictures of some of the Christmas boxes that I made this last week. I ended up making 31 total boxes with a total of 14 different designs. Some of my customers  are going to use them to put money in for gifts, I think they are just the right size for jewelry such as earrings or necklaces.  But I am offering mine with candy inside.

I used a double tag on the top left box here to give it a little more zing.

The deer box is done using the new in color Soft Suede and it is so sweet.  It is hard to see but I used the Dec 25 post it stamp from Winter Post as my background stamp with Gold Metalic Ink.  I did not have any matching ribbon so I used chocolate chip.

Mostly the directions for these boxes are follow the directions on the die cut.  Except when it comes to folding down the sides ONLY fold down the two short sides. I used sticky strip to hold mine down. Leave the two long sides open to glue your tag to. When I glued on the tag I used anywhere glue because you can reposition it over an over.  When matching up the window sometimes you need to tweak it a few times before you get it centered just right. I also glued a matching tag to the back of each tag to give it more support. The slider window has packing tape with dazzling diamonds sprinkled sparingly.  I tapped off as much as I could then scrapped off even more with my fingernail.  Less is best this way you get a very clear image shinning through the window.
