I thought the size of the tree motifs was absolutely perfect for these cute Clear Tiny Treat Boxes which come in packs of 16.
Working in Melon Mambo cardstock, I heat embossed four little trees in White Stampin Emboss on four scored panels measuring just less than 2 inch square per panel. Each little tree was embellished with some Jewels Basic Rhinestones. There is a little 2 inch square panel on the inside bottom of the box.
I cut a little scallop edged square from my Layering Squares Framelits and adhered this to the top of the box. I punched a hole in the centre and fed through some 1/8" Silver ribbon and secured this underneath with some strong double sided tap. Then I adhered another 2" square piece of matching cardstock on the inside of the lid to hide where the ribbon had been secured.
I finished with a nice little bow and the this treat box is ready to fill with some sweet treats and hang from a Christmas Tree. It did occur to me afterwards that you could make up 25 of these and number them from 1 - 25 to use as an advent calendar suspended from branches of your tree ?
Well that's all from me today. Thanks for stopping by, and I do hope you find this little project pleasing. I think the size of the treat boxes lend themselves perfectly to the Totally Trees stamps.
Bye for now.
