TEENY TINY TREAT BOXES featuring the SPRINGTIME JOY Stamp Set and the OVAL OCCASIONS Bundle

 

I think Spring is finally here in York PA.  We have had a nice string of beautiful days.  The daffodils are poking through and the birds are chirping way too early in the morning.  The projects on this post can be used for lots of occasions.  They would be great for Easter treats, spring birthdays, Mother's Day and even wedding or party favors.  

My first project is the Little Lamb Mini Gift Bag.  For the box, cut a piece of POOL PARTY card stock at 4in by 11in. Before scoring, randomly stamp the panel with the butterfly image from the SPRINGTIME JOY stamp set using POOL PARTY INK.  Then score on the LONG SIDE at 2-1/4in, 3-1/4in, 5-1/2in and 6-1/2in.  Score the SHORT SIDE at 1in. 

To make the front panel, cut a piece of BASIC WHITE card stock at 2-1/8in by 2-13/16in.  Layer on to that piece a piece of HIGHLAND HEATHER card stock cut at 1-7/8in by 2-5/8in.  On a scrap piece of BASIC WHITE, stamp the lamb image from the SPRINGTIME JOY stamp set in MEMENTO INK.  I used SMOKY SLATE, PETAL PINK, SOFT SEAFOAM, POOL PARTY and HIGHLAND HEATHER BLENDS.  I then “fussy cut” the lamb image and placed it on the mini treat bag using DIMENSIONALS.

On the back of the bag, I used a 2-3/4in by 1-5/8in size BASIC WHITE, scalloped, stitched rectangle from the STITCHED SO SWEETLY DIES. 

I stamped the sentiment at the top of the rectangle and stamped the flower images at the bottom.  I colored the flowers using HIGHLAND HEATHER, POOL PARTY and SOFT SEAFOAM BLENDS.  I then placed the rectangle on the back of the treat bag using DIMENSIONALS.  Finally, I punched holes in the sides of the box and tied a piece of TRICOLOR RIBBON for the handle. 

The second project is the Favor Box with a Belly Band.  I love this box because of its unique opening. 

Start with a piece of POOL PARTY card stock cut at 7in by 6-1/2in.  On the LONGSIDE, score at 2in and 5in.  Score at 1in, 3in, 4in and 6in on the SHORT SIDE.  With the 1in section at the top, score at 1-1/2in and 5-1/2in to the second score line.

After assembly, adhere a piece of FINE ARTS FLORAL DSP cut at 2-7/8in by 1-7/8in.  For the belly band stamp the sentiment on a scrap of BASIC WHITE card stock using a sentiment from the OVAL OCCASIONS stamp set.  

Using the DOUBLE OVAL PUNCH, punch out the sentiment using the scallop.  Using the second smallest oval in the STITCHED SHAPES DIES, cut out a POOL PARTY oval.  Layer those pieces using DIMENSIONALS.  Finally use a 3/4in strip of POOL PARTY card stock to make the belly band.

The last product is the teeniest.  This cute little treat box holds one pack of the MINI TIC TACS. 

I started with a piece of SOFT SEAFOAM card stock cut at 2-5/8in by 3-7/8in.  On the SHORT SIDE, score at 5/8in and 2in.  Score at 5/8in, 1-5/8in, 2-1/4in and 3-1/4in. Stamp the butterfly and the tulip image from the SPRINGTIME JOY stamp set on BASIC WHITE card stock with MEMENTO INK.  I colored the images with FLIRTY FLAMINGO, HIGHLAND HEATHER and OLD OLIVE BLENDS.  I “fussy cut” the images and adhered them to the front of the box using DIMENSIONALS.  The link below is where I got these cute little mini Tic Tac boxes
