Easter Treat Boxes

Sorry I've been MIA again - I have been so sick this year and I just couldn't seem to get over the infection. I finally went to an ENT on Thursday and found out that my sinus cavities below my eyes are compacted with junk. So I am now on 3 weeks of antibiotics and steroids. I go back in a month to see if we have finally cleared this crap up! At least I'm starting to feel somewhat like my old self. I have a little more energy (I'm sure it's due to the steroids, lol) which is a good thing. I am very behind on many many things so hoping I catch up soon. Here's to doing stuff one day at a time, right?!

So for stamp club in March we made these cute Easter Treat Boxes using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. There are so many wonderful things being made with that punch. It's a WONDERFUL investment that's for sure!

I then had to make some for an event I participated in. I had some with jelly beans in them and others with M&M's in them. I made like 10 and one lady purchased them all. I guess I should have made more, lol!

I used Eggstra Spectacular stamp set and Stampin' Write Markers to color in the images. It's such a cute fun set!

Of course I like variety so I made them using the Sweet Sorbet paper (which was a special during Sale-A-Bration) and matching cardstocks. I used Chevron Ribbon to tie the boxes shut with a little Whisper White Baker's Twine.

More Fun Fold Cards

I thought I'd share a couple more cards from my Fun Folds class last Sunday. The above picture is a Tri-Shutter Card and you can find the directions on how to make one on SplitcoastStampers in their tutorial section. Although it looks complicated it's really not. Just a few score lines and two cut lines and it's done. The hardest part for me is remember how to fold each panel! The paper & stamp set I used for the Tri-Shutter card is from the Sale-A-Bration brochure which ends on March 31st! Just a few more days to get FREE product for every $50 you spend.

This next card I found somewhere on Pinterest but had to change a few things to get it to work for me. The original post that I had found was in a different language with odd measurements. The notches on the end were made with the Envelope Board. Kind of hard to tell but the flap on the other end has a small cut in it (made by a Deco Label Framelit) and is for a gift card. I wish I would have thought of putting one in a taking a picture. The band you see goes around the front and help holds it close.

I hope you've enjoyed the cards. You can buy supplies at my site HERE. Thanks so much for stopping by!
