Pillow Box Treat Holders

Went through the stash and found an old Sizzix Pillow Box die so I used that for my treat holders. This year I am trying to use lots from the stash and as much card stock printed scraps that I can. Here is a photo of some of the pillow boxes I made:

Cut all the pillow boxes out of kraft card stock. Used various printed card stock scraps and I die cut a rectangle die out of the prints. Used liquid glue to assemble the pillow boxes. Used liquid glue for all the prints I die cut for the fronts of the boxes. Dug out some white paper doilies from the stash and put one on each box. For the poinsettias and the greenery I used Impression Obsession dies from the stash. The poinsettia is their small poinsettia die set:


Cut all the poinsettias out of scrap red card stock and used liquid glue to layer those. Set those aside to dry and cut out two greenery dies from scrap green card stocks:


Once the flowers and greenery were all cut out I put them in a box and used the gold Shimmer Mist from the stash and spritzed them with that for the gold specks on them - the photos do not show this well but IRL they are sparkly:


Once these all dried I used hot glue and added a gold crystal gem to the center of the flowers. Used liquid glue and added the doilies to the boxes. Then used liquid glue for the greenery pieces. To add the flowers and the sentiments I used hot glue. Once again the hot foil sentiments on the pillow boxes I had hot foiled earlier this year and I have all these foiled sentiments sorted into small boxes by foil colour. This way when I need a sentiment for my projects I look through the boxes to see what I can use. This is a time saver for sure -


Easy treat holders to put together and inside the boxes is some paper shred with a few chocolates for a treat. Happy to be able to use more of the card stock scraps and also happy to use products in the stash for this holiday treat holder!
