K-cup Christmas Treat box

Is this adorable or what!?

At a recent demonstrator event in Medina, MN a couple weekends ago, Beth Tetzlaff led us all in this fun make-n-take project. It's a K-cup treat box. And it's SO easy to make. (Measurements and tips for creating are below. Supplies used are all listed at the very bottom.)

Measurements:

• Candy Cane Lane Designer Paper: 1-1/2" x 12" strip
• Whisper White cardstock: 2-3/4" x 5-1/2" scrap for stamping and punching gingerbread man and two circles (1-3/4" and 2")
• Real Red cardstock: scrap for punching out 1-3/4" Circle
• Crumb Cake cardstock: scrap for punching out 2" Circle 
• Real Red Twine: 12"

Tips:

• After assembling a Clear Tiny Treat box, wrap the designer paper strip around to mold it to the box shape. Remove and fold on the creases that were formed. Add some SNAIL adhesive just where the strips will meet, and then wrap it around the box again this time securing it with the adhesive. Use a Bone Folder to curl the ends of the designer paper strip in two directions.
• Stamp the gingerbread man and punch it out. Then stamp the tag sentiments and punch them out.
• Pierce a hole in the smaller circle tag. Wrap the twine around the base of the curled designer paper. Tie in a knot, add this tag, then tie the twine again in a bow.
• Layer the remaining circles and the gingerbread man using SNAIL Adhesive and Dimensionals. Add a bit of SNAIL adhesive on the front and back of the very bottom and insert into the curled designer paper.
• Slide the box out and add a K-Cup or other treat for the holidays. And give as a gift!

I wasn't able to participate in the card swap at this event, but 6 dear friends each gave me one of their extra swaps! I was so touched. I came home with new card ideas, an adorable make-n-take and a cute matching name tag. Here they all are pictured with my other cards/gifts of late.

Stampers are thoughtful people! Gosh, I love what I get to do for a living.
