Loose Valentine's shaker treat box

Hello and happy Sunday!  I have a cute little treat box for you today and I've made it extra special by adding a shaker element.  I typically don't like to make traditional shaker cards unless I'm hand delivering them.  I always hand deliver treats so a shaker box works perfectly for those.  This box doesn't take a lot of supplies to make and once you get the hand of them, they're really pretty quick and easy.  I have a video tutorial over on my YouTube page you will want to watch to see how I put it together.  You can see it here by clicking this link.  You will notice in the photos below I added an additional piece of dsp to the inside of the box top.  You could see the glue lines through the vellum, so I covered it.  I didn't cut the inside piece at the same time as the top two.  Because it's vellum, if you're off a tiny bit, it really doesn't show through.

Sending Love large banner treat box

 Happy Sunday everyone!  I hope everyone is enjoying some much-needed relaxation today.  I have another treat/gift box you can use for Valentines, wedding or any time you want to send a little love to someone.  I've combined two of the latest products by Stampin' Up! in this project.  You will find a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link.  I hope you will give it a try and make something special for your friends or family.  They're pretty quick and easy to make.  Of course, you could make this box for any occasion at all just by changing colors and decorations.   If you don't have the banner dies, no worries, you can use two pieces of cardstock 3 3/4" x 5" and it will work just as easily.  To make the banner ends, cut down in the center of one end about 1/2", then cut down from each side to the center cut to make your own banner if you would like.
