Hi everyone! It's Sandie here today with a papercrafting tutorial for some quick and easy treat boxes.

These handmade treat boxes are perfect for any occasion from birthday treats to wedding favours to halloween candies.... or even just an impromptu treat for the kids, they love them!

To make the treat boxes you will need:

Sizzix (or other) Pillowbox Die Selection of Cardstock Patterned Papers Classic Circle & Scalloped Circle Nestabilities White card for stamping Colouring medium DS Tape or Wet Glue Stamps. I've used Fairy Trinkets from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps 3D Foam tape/dots

The How to:

Cut out the pillow boxes in a few different colours using the die and make them up. Use a strong tape along the side strip to adhere the sides together and then fold in both the top and bottom flaps. Trim the patterned papers to fit lengthwise, wrap it around the box and secure with glue. Add a length of lace across each pillowbox Stamp out the images/sentiemnts and cut out using classic circle Nestabilities. Colour the image using your desired medium Cut out some scalloped circles in contrasting cardstock and adhere the images Adhere the scalloped circles to the front of the pillow box using 3D foam, for extra depth.
