Hi Stamping Friends!
 

There is just one week left to RSVP for my Fun & Festive Boxes Class and you won't want to miss this one!  We're creating 6 adorable boxes and you'll have a chance to try out a variety of box styles, including ones made with the new Gift Box Punch Board.  Class-To-Go Kits are available, too!  There is limited seating for this class, so reserve your spot soon!

 
Today, we'll check out one of the boxes we'll be creating at the class using the Fry Box Bigz L Die.

Fry boxes - two cool 

If you're looking for a cute, easy-to-assemble treat favor for your upcoming holiday events, the Fry Box Bigz L Die might be just the box you're looking for! 

It's 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" size is smaller than a traditional fast-food fry box, but the open design is big enough to hold lots of treats!  Plus, it's so much fun to decorate them to use as Halloween party treats, Thanksgiving place settings, wedding reception favors, kid's party take-aways, and more!

Fry boxes - oh my goodies 

Basic Box—It takes just a 1/2 sheet of card stock to create this box, and I used Soft Suede for my box base.  Once the card stock is run through the Big Shot with the Fry Box Bigz L Die, all of the cutting and scoring is done for you—just fold and adhere in two places!

TIP For Adhering: For a strong and sturdy hold, I like to use either Sticky Strip or the new Fast Fuse Adhesive, which is like Sticky Strip in a SNAIL-like dispenser.  Learn more about this new adhesive in the Fast Fuse Video Tutorial.

DSP Lined Box—I love the look of the Color Me Autumn Designer Series Paper lining the inside of the box and it was super-easy to do!  I simply ran a 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" piece of the DSP on the Fry Box die at the same time as I cut the full box.  Lay the DSP into position on your die first, then lay the card stock on top of it.  

 
I folded the paper and folded the box first, then adhered the paper to the box with SNAIL, trimming off any edges that didn't match up.

Goodie Décor—The label shapes from the Oh My Goodies stamp set work perfectly with this box!  I stamped the image once in Cajun Craze, then again in Old Olive. 
 
I die-cut the Cajun Craze image with the coordinating Deco Labels Collection Framelit for the bottom layer.  Then, I used the Large Oval Punch to punch out the sentiment from the Old Olive version and pop it up with Dimensionals.  It's adhered to the box with more Dimensionals.
 
Finishing Details—I finished up the box with a quick Hello Honey Stitched Satin Bow, attached to the label with a Glue Dot.  
 
DONE!  Isn't that quick & easy?  I thought this one would be perfect to fill with fall candies and set at each place at our family's Thanksgiving dinner

I made another version of this box with a masculine autumn birthday in mind.  I hand-cut the "umpteenth" center, but it was still complete in less than 7 minutes!  Sweet!
