There is still time to make these fun little Valentine treat boxes that are sure to bring smiles to anyone you give them to. They are filled with a couple of Dark Chocolate Hershey Kisses. It took a few hours to use one of the wonderful 4X 6 paper packs called Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper Stack (Item 137779) from Stampin' Up! I first saw these on a UK SU demonstrator site called Pootles.
Valentine treats - Love Designer Series Paper |
These cute boxes are created using the Envelope Punch Board. Cut your paper to 4.5 X 4.5". Using your Envelope Punch board, punch and score on the first side at 1" and 3"; then rotate and punch and score using the first lines you created as a guide. These boxes fit two Hershey Kisses perfectly.
I made about two dozen from one designer paper pack. They all fit into a small Priority Mail box, which I shipped to my mom along with the Valentine card below.
