Baker's Box Thinlits

For stamp club, I always try to have three cards and one non-card project for the ladies. July's project revolves around my newly bought Homemade for You bundle. The bundle comes with the Homemade for You stamp set and Baker's Box Thinlits. Now I don't usually make 3D projects, but I was intrigued by the size and shape of the Baker's Box. It's perfect for filling with Kisses or M&Ms or even a few small cookies. I pulled out a ton of old DSP, picked a fun subtle pattern from Park Lane and started cutting. The thinlit requires two passes through the Big Shot. If you place it carefully, you can get two pieces out of a 6" x 12" piece of DSP. From there, it's just a matter of folding along the score lines and gluing the two pieces together. Easy peasy! I added a few tags (dies included in the Baker's Box Thinlits), some ribbon, and a cute clothespin. Overall a very cute little project. I'm thinking about making 13 of them for our October retreat. Maybe fill with some candy...
