Hello there! It is officially November and that means one thing… the flood gates have opened and we can officially celebrate the holidays! It’s Kristie Larsen here, and I have a fun post for you today. A little treat box to give to just about anyone. It’s adorable and classy and beautiful with Red, White and Green card stock from CutCardStock.com!
I’m actually using Neenah White card stock. Which has a beautiful texture and poundage so its heavy enough for this little box. I die cut two pieces.
Next I die cut some squares for the windows and my matching pine boughs that I stamped with matching images.
I folded and adhered the two sides of the boxes together.
Hindsight says I should have glued in the squares while the box was still flat, but they also went in easily after it was glued together. I used some Tombow Mono Multi adhesive from the CutCardStock.com. This is where you put the treat inside!
I die cut some green trim. This is Pop-Tones sour apple.
I die cut three sentiments using Basis red card stock. I also die cut a shimmery gold sentiment from Stardream Metallic paper that I used for a shadow behind the red.
I adhered the sentiment to the pine bough and popped it up with some foam adhesive and curved it around the top of the box.
It was all closed up with some ribbon.
And that’s it! Every year I look for a simple project I can make to send to friends and neighbours and this is it! CutCardStock.com has so many amazing varieties of card stock for all of the gift giving I want to do this year. Red, White and Green and all on sale RIGHT NOW!
Hope you get a chance to craft this week. Be sure to check out the store and stock up for your holiday season.
I saw a really great Pinterest post for a photo backdrop using faux boxwood plants and silk flowers and thought it would be perfect for my best friends bridal shower and wedding, but decided to go with paper flowers instead of silk. I have seen so many posts on Instagram about paper flowers and templates…

Living in Houston, TX, I don’t really get four seasons anymore, but I like to pretend it’s fall and ignore the fact that it’s still 90 degrees outside. To help support my delusion I wanted to create some fall decor. I went with a wreath to hang on the inside of our front door and…
Over the years, crafting has become a way for me to express my appreciation for others or to bring joy to family and friends. Like a love language. So when a good gal pal of mine asked me to help with her school’s upcoming gala, I was all in! Sign me up! At her event,…
