Think Green!

Happy Monday, my crafty friends! Julie here today with some Irish inspiration for you.  

Today, I'm thinking St. Patrick's Day, and an easy treat box you can whip up quick.  Now that, you gotta LOVE!

This is the "Lucky In Love" treat box from My Scrap Chick. I used My Mind's Eye Lime Twist 12x12 paper to cut it out on my Silhouette, making it just a little larger than the original. Then, I filled a Bella's Creationz Clear Mini Favor Bag with some sweet treats, printed the sentiment that came with the treat box, stapled the box closed with my trusty Tim Holtz Tiny Fastener, and tied some Pumpkin Orange Timeless Twine around the the scalloped flap.  And, of course, it need a big bow, just because.

Here's a close up of the sentiment and lucky clover, because I have been lucky in love!

I've got one more view of the box to show you, so you can see how pretty it looks inside, too:

Cute, yes?

This went together very quickly.  I plan to make a few, fill them with goodies, and give them to my friends at the nursing home on St. Patrick's Day.  Then, they'll feel lucky, too.

You Melt My Heart

Hello, and happy Monday, my friends.  Julie O here today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers. Here we are, the last week in February already! But, it is still very much winter here in NW Wisconsin.  We recently got 15 inches of fresh snow, and now we're back to below zero temperatures every night.  With weather like this, I'm still thinking winter, and snowmen!

I created this snowman treat box to hold some chocolates or other goodies.  

Here's another view where you can see into the box better:

I used Aqua Blue Timeless Twine throughout this project.

Here's a look of the gift bag:

I used several Bella Creationz products on this:

                                             heart stickers

                                          mini clothespins

clear mini favor bags

The snowman treat box is a cutting file from The Cutting Cafe.

The white glitter card stock on the front of the snowman is from American Crafts. All other card stock is from Close To My Heart, as is the stamped sentiment and buttons.  Designer papers are from Echo Park -- Winter Wishes.

I'll leave you with one last view of my snowman treat box:

It's true! You, my blog friend, melt my heart! Thanks for stopping by for a visit today!
