Parisian Tree Thank You Box

I know you have seen a couple cards I have made using SU's cardstock-weight textured paper called Parisian Breeze Speciality.....I have paired it here with Trendy Trees, which is such a cute, fun set, and made it into a one-sheet box. You can find the directions at SCS here. Although it is a little tricky to get the folds the first time you make it, once you get it, it's not difficult at all. This cardstock is heavy, so it builds a nice sturdy box to hold lots of goodies! Be sure to use Sticky Strip so it doesn't fall apart!

I did not tie the top of the box together, but punched an oval in each top and added a ribbon fastened with a brad. There is still enough room to put some goodies inside:DSCF3108

and the ribbon makes a nice little matching handle! Thanks for visiting today....I hope to be able to do another card using the Mojo Monday sketch!








  • Stamps: Trendy Trees
  • Paper: Confetti White, Close to Cocoa, Parisian Breeze Specialty DP
