Milk Carton Favors

Treat filled favors are so fun to make, give and receive.  Birgit here with you today with a fun filled project to share with your friends and loved ones.

These milk carton containers are made using Pop-Tones Cardstock which are all on sale for the month of June.   

I used the colors Wild Cherry, Berrylicious and Sweet Tooth.  Don't they just sound like sweet colors?

I cut one box each out of Berrylicious and Wild Cherry cardstock and assembled the boxes using Score-Tape which is a super strong adhesive.   It's perfect for making boxes and things that you want to hold up when handled.

I then cut four flowers out of Sweet Tooth cardstock, two for each box, using a patterned paper for the centers and layered the flowers using Glue Dots.

I gently fluffed the petals up to give them dimension.

A belly band was created to go around the center of the box by cutting a 2" wide strip of cardstock and then cutting an eyelet stitched border for the top and bottom edge.  I adhered the lacy edge to the cardstock using Glue Dots GLUE LINE.  

Once that was done I simply wrapped the band around the box and adhered it using either Score-Tape or Glue Lines.  Attach the flower using a large Glue Dot.

Fill the boxes with yummy treats or small gifts and tie them closed using fun packing twine.

I hope you enjoyed today's project.  You can find more details on the dies I used on my blog.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Blessings~ Birgit
