It's time to get in the treat making mode and these boxes are perfect for that!  They are small, but big enough for jewelry, candies, cash/check (but not a gift card), a coupon/note, nail polish....you get the idea.  Place at the top of a stocking, in a mailbox, on the desk of a colleague, under a mini tree, in a lunch box.....

The timing of this box is perfect because these Scalloped Dies are on sale today and tomorrow at 20% off.  These dies are one of my most used sets (and I rarely use them with the stamp set they were bundled with, which means you can buy them separately and use all on their own).

I decorated my box with the Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Card Pack, which means there was no stamping involved.  I used the pre-decorated stickers and even cut one of the cards for the bottom layer pattern.  But, you can use any pretty & festive papers to decorate with.  100% versatile.

Have fun making your boxes.  Warning, they are pretty addictive in making.

1. With Crumb Cake card stock, cut the largest scalloped contour die.  Holding in landscape position, score after the 5th scallop from both sides.  See photo below.  Fold on both score lines.
2. With Crumb Cake card stock, cut a 3-1/2” x 5” rectangle.  Score at 7/8” on all four sides.  Snip & notch the top and bottom 7/8” score lines.  See photo below.  Fold on all score lines.
3. To create the inner box, add glue to the smaller tabs and fold over the larger tab.  Do on both sides. 
4. Add glue to the bottom of the box and insert into folded scallop (which will create the top & bottom of the box).
5. Decorate.  Choose a pattern from the Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Card Pack and cut 3” x 1/2”.  Glue onto top of box.  Choose from the stickers to decorate.
6. With a 15” piece of ribbon, weave through the center holes and tie a bow.
