Small Sweet Treat Box

I made these with the Envelope Punch Board. 



Instructions:

* Start with a 6" x 6" piece of paper
* Using the Envelope Punch Board, score and punch 1 3/4" 
* Slide paper over to 3 1/8", score and punch
* Slide paper over to 4 1/2", score and punch
* Turn the paper, use the score guide and score/punch at each line
* Repeat for the remaining sides of the paper
* Cut off the smaller triangles - there are four rectangles and two are smaller than the others
* Cut off each square that has a rounded edge
* Cut the lines on either side of the triangles to create squares that will be the tabs for the box
* Put adhesive on the outside of the tabs and turn them in to create the box
* Place your treats  into the box (I put Dove chocolates in these boxes)
* Fold the rectangles in to complete the box
* Use a mini punch to create the handles - punch on each of the triangles
* Use the reverse punch on the Envelope Punch Board to round the end of the two triangles
* Use a mini hole punch to punch two holes - one on each side of the handles
* Thread ribbon through the holes and tie in either a knot or bow
* Add a sentiment for the box with a dimensional and viola! The box is complete.

I gave these to a few of the ladies at church who have been so kind to my family and me.

Have a great day!
