Here's a cute & simple way to package little treats with the Matchbox Big Shot Die.
You can stack them, tie some ribbon around it and then the person you give it to has three little boxes to open.
I love stuff like this!! You can fit little pieces of candy, jewelry & even a little note.
For the older nieces & nephews I put cash inside the box. Last year I put their cash inside the Pillow Box.
On the picture above I used the Sweet Season Stamp set with Old Olive Ribbon.
The next picture I used the Sparkly & Bright stamp set & colored the star with a YoYo Yellow Marker. I punched the tree with the 1 3/8 Circle Punch, added it to the Real Red Scallop Circle & pierced the scallops with the Paper Piercer & my Chic Stand.

Now I need to explain how I made the Matchbox yesterday. Instead of adding the sliding lid, I cut off half of it and attached it to the back side. I'm terrible at wording this.....do you want me to film a video? I could do a short & sweet one real fast on Monday.Thanks for joining me!!
p.s. Can I whine just a little? I was gone 90% of today/tonight and tomorrow will be even be worse :(

Please, please, please film a video. I'm looking for something I can fill with Hershey kisses as a favor for my Christmas table. We have a beagle named Hershey and she INSISTS we give people Hershey kisses every time they come here and now people look forward to their favors and expect something better than last time.

Hi Angie, Please film the video. It is so much easier to learn with the videos, at least for me. Thanks! Sue

Yes Please, a video. I learn so much faster when I can see it done than when it is just written down. You are the sweetest. Have a wonderful day!
