Hello Friends,
Welcome to the October Craft Hoarders Anonymous Hop! You should be coming to my Blog from Donna's BlogAfter visiting me, hop over to Debbie's Blog next. To start at the beginning of the hop, and for the full list of Bloggers, go to Gloria's Blog
Be sure to leave a comment here for a chance to win a prize provided by me, see picture below. I will announce the winner next Monday.
Today I have two cute treat boxes to share with you created with the new Spellbinders die set called Box of Treats. This box was so easy to make, all the cutting lines and folding lines are in the die which makes it really easy to assemble. 










Instructions:

1. Die cut Box of Treats from pattern paper. Crease folding lines and then ink edges with distress ink. 


2. Die cut 2 rectangles and 2 squares from the die set using pattern paper. Color edges with distress inks and then adhere to box as pictured below.



3. For the second box, die cut window from the die set as pictured below.





4. Assemble boxes by gluing or taping the side flaps as pictured. 
5. Tie a bow through the holes die cut by the die using silk ribbon. Embellish center of bow with a small flower. For the picture below I used the tiny flowers from the Spellbinders Decorative Flower Basket die set.





Supplies:


Other Supplies: Maja Design Paper - Vintage Romance and Vintage Spring Basics, Blue Fern Studios Papers- Blush Celebration and Frolic Allegro, May Arts Silk Ribbon, Pearls, Simply Define Double Sided Adhesive Tape.

Here is a picture of the items in the prize that I will be giving away to one lucky winner. These are some of my favorite things I use just about every day for my projects. Leave a comment here for a chance to win. I will announce the winner next Monday.
