Open Top Box


Here is a very simple box for you to make this week. We hope you will have fun making a bunch of these easy boxes and post the link here on our blog. You can make these any size you want. In the template, each square is 2 1/4" on each side but you can increase or decrease the size as you'd like.

Don't forget we have a wonderful bag from Daily Window Products to give to one winner for this week's challenge.

This is the box that I made decorated using our "Sponsor OF The Month", Paper Trey Ink's wonderful stamp set called "Rustic Snowflakes". I stamped the image using white craft ink and embossed with White EP (both from Stampin' UP!). Super simple and a great little treat box, which would be great for a Secret Santa gift. I can't wait to see what you will come up with!

For my box I used "Polka Dot Basics" from Paper Trey Ink - these stamps ROCK! I was able to make a great dotted background for this box.

I used a 9" x 9" piece of heavy cardboard (the kind that comes with a pack of designer paper) for my box and added a dotted butterfly from Stampin' Up!'s Flight of the Butterfly to keep with the dotted theme. These are super fun and easy and I'm hoping to see lots of entries this week in our gallery this week!
