Christmas Treat Box

Hi everyone,  it's time for a  new challenge on the Scor-Pal blog.  This month it's time to create anything you want.  As Christmas is near, I wanted to create a different shaped treat box.

This box takes 3 sheets of cardstock and 3 sheets of pattern paper.

Step 1 - Using a 12" x 12" sheet of cardstock, score  at 4" and 8".  Rotate and score again at 4" and 8", creating 9 equally sized squares.

Step 2 - Cut 2nd sheet of cardstock 10 1/2" x 10 1/2".  Score a 3 1/2" and 7".  Rotate the cardstock and score again at 3 /12" and 7", creating 9 equally sized squares.

Step 3 - Cut 3rd sheet of cardstock 8 1/4" x 8 1/4".  Score at 2 3/4" and 5 3/4".  Rotate the cardstock and score again at 2 3/4" and 5 3/4", creating 9 equally sized squares.

Step 4 - Cut the corners from each sheet of scored cardstock.

Step 5 - Cut each square into a triangular shape.  Find the center of each square and cut on an angle to the score lines.

Step 6 - for the exterior panel, cut 8 pieces of double sided pattern paper, each 3 3/4" x 3 3/4".  Cut into triangular shapes to fit.  Ink edges and adhere to both sides.  

Step 7 - for the middle panel, cut 8 pieces of double sided pattern paper, each 3 1/4" x 3 1/4".  Cut into triangular shapes to fit.  Ink edges and adhere to both sides.

Step 8 - for the smallest panel, cut 8 pieces of double sided pattern paper, each 2 5/8" and 2 5/8".  Cut into triangular shapes to fit.  Ink edges and adhere to both sides.

 Step 9 - cut a 2 5/8" x 2 5/8" panel to fit the center of the smallest panel.  Ink edges and adhere.

Step 10 - add Scor-Tape to the center panels and adhere all 3 panels together.

Step 11- Punch holes in the center of the larger panels and thread ribbon.  Place candy inside.

Stamp phrases on white cardstock.  Die cut, ink and mat with larger dies.

Use a hook to hang from Christmas tree or even use as a place setting on the dining room table.

Thanks for stopping by.
