Snowman Magic Cracker Treat box, 9th in the 12 Projects of Christmas 2022

 I sure hope everyone survived Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday shopping.  I had such a good time!  It's a tradition for my mom and I to get up early each Black Friday and spend the day together shopping, having lunch and just enjoying each other's company.  We've missed a handful of years, but we both look forward to our time together each year.  

Today's project was inspired by Tami White.  I figured out my own measurements for the box to fit the treats I wanted to put in them.  The Snowman treats I found at my local Home Goods store.  The brand is LaSuissa, made in Italy, milk chocolate filled with cocoa cream.  I myself am more of a dark chocolate fan, but I couldn't pass up those little snowmen for this project.  To see how I've put it together, be sure to watch my YouTube channel replay HERE:



This is the template of how each piece should look when you die cut them.  Be sure to trim 1/8” or so off each end piece of the white as shown in the video.


Measurements and supplies:

Snowman Magic stamp set
Cracker and Treat Box dies
Shimmer or Basic White cardstock, 2 5/8 x 5
Basic Black cardstock, 2 1/4 x 5"
Scraps of Basic White for scarf and holly
Ink Pads: Memento Black, Shaded Spruce and any color for scarf (Sweet Sorbet)
