TRY A SLIDER TREAT BOX TO SHARE HOLIDAY CHEER - A STAMP HAPPY HOLIDAYS POST🎄

Hi Stampers!

Today’s Stamp Happy Holidays project is a slider treat box. The box itself is easy to create. You can keep the decorating simple or really step it up. This is another treat box that is perfect for giving to co-workers, or handing guests as a party favor or a table favor, and of course it can be made for any holiday or occasion. This project is a great way to use up scraps of patterned paper, and is the perfect showcase for die cut or punched images. Let’s take a look at the sample projects:

HALLOWEEN, THANKSGIVING, & CHRISTMAS TREATS

HAPPY NEW 

I created these treat boxes in October ‘23 for New Year’s Eve that year. You can see that post HERE.

TRY A SLIDER TREAT BOX TO SHARE HOLIDAY CHEER

WHAT YOU NEED

* Base -cut cardstock at 5 1/2” x 4 1/4”

* Box Sleeve - cut cardstock at 5 3/4” x 5 1/2”

* Slider Box - cut cardstock at 8 1/2” x 3 7/8”

* Stamps, Inks, Dies, Punches, Patterned Paper, etc

* Strong adhesive, dimensionals, etc.

* Candies - Kisses, Hugs, Nuggets, Doves Chocolates, etc.

WHAT TO DO

* Score box sleeve along 5 3/4” side at 1 1/2”, 2 1/2”, 4”, and 5”. Go over score lines with bone folder.

 

* Fold on 1 1/2” score line toward center of sleeve (mountain fold). Fold 4” score line toward center (mountain fold). Fold back 5” score line (valley fold). This creates a 3/4” flap. Place adhesive on it. Now fold the flap down and adhere to sleeve. You should have, for lack of a better term, a squared cylinder, what I call a box sleeve. 

* Score Slider Box on all sides at 1 1/2”,  see diagram for scoring and cutting. 

* Adhere box sleeve to treat box base. Put adhesive on the seam side of the box sleeve. Line it up with the bottom of the base (5 1/2” side).

* Decorate the base and sleeve, fill box with candy and slide  it into sleeve.

NOTE: I use mostly Stampin’ Up!®️ products. Some products are retired and noted as such. Supplies and products from other companies are also noted as such. I encourage you to use supplies you gave on hand to create your very own versions of these projects.
