Double Goodie Box

I'm running just a bit late in posting this morning, but I wanted to make this little box that I saw, to share with you. Isn't this just adorable! This was made using the Big Shot and the Box #2 Bigz XL Die. You just cut 2 boxes, assemble them and adhere them together with Sticky Strip. Instead of making the lid, I glued the flaps together, and used the Wide Oval Punch to create the handle. Tie a bow with coordinating ribbon, I used the 1" Double-Stitched Grosgrain in Chocolate Chip, add your favorite candy, and your done! It's that easy.

I used the soon to be retired Specialty Paper Parisian Breeze. This is a heavier weight paper and works great for making these boxes. I checked the SU website this morning, just to make sure, and as of then, it was still available. The sentiment is from the stamp set Oval All featured in the Occasions Mini Catalog along with the Scallop Oval Punch. This is a great set, that coordinates with the Large and Small Oval Punches for lots of layering.

These would make great favor boxes if you're entertaining this summer. Just coordinate your paper with what ever your occasion may be. Birthday, Bridal Shower, Baby Shower, Anniversary, or just a back yard Bar-B-Que. Your guests are sure to love them!

Hmmm, maybe I'll have a party!

Have a Great Day!
