Easter Treat Boxes & Mini Cards + Video

Happy Thursday! I have some fun treat boxes and mini-cards to share with you today. All supplies were from the Whimsy March Card kit. The kit is on pre-order now and will ship out March 16th. Please be aware that there are a limited amount of kits available and once they are gone, they are gone. So if you don’t want to miss out, be sure to to and get yours HERE.

Since the kit has a Spring/Easter theme, I created some Easter treat boxes and mini cards. One piece of 8.5” x 11” cardstock can make the base for one treat box AND two mini cards. There is hardly any wastage going on at all! The pink ones were made first and then the green/blue ones were made as I did the video tutorial.

Here is a close-up of the box. I absolutely love this multi-colored chevron paper that is in the kit. The little bunny is from the rubber stamps set that comes with the kit. The stamp set will also be available to purchase separately on March 16th.
