The Mini Curvy Keepsakes Boxes are so super cute! The smaller size makes them perfect for delivering a sweet treat without using a lot of cardstock or Designer Series Paper. I decided to make a variation of the snowman box shown in the 2019 Holiday Catalog. You can watch the Facebook Live Replay of this project here.
Start by die cutting out a mini curvy keepsakes box from Whisper White cs with the Mini Curvy Keepsakes dies. Decide which side of the box you want your face to be on – I did mine on the inside panel with a handle.
Add googly eyes with Shimmery Crystal Effects (or glue or glue dots) for the snowman eyes. Add the carrot nose from the Let it Snow Embellishment Kit.
Use a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to add the mouth and eyelashes (you can also use the coal buttons from the Let it Snow Embellishment Kit for the mouth).
Use your Bone Folder to gently curl the sides of the box and build your box and add your sweet treat.
To make the top hat tag use the Everyday Label punch to punch a label out of Basic Black cs.
Use your Bone Folder to fold the Basic Black cs tag in half.
Use Paper Snipes to first cut off the top half circle.
Then with the Paper Snips, using the notch as a guide, cut down towards the folded edge and curve at the bottom to make the hat brim.
Repeat on the other side to make the hat. Then decorate your hat. I used the sparkly washi tape from the Let it Snow Embellishment Kit as the hat band and added snowflake sequins with the Shimmery Crystal Effects instead of with glue to the hat band.
Don’t forget to add a Whisper White cs panel to the inside of the hat tag to write a message. I stamped the sentiment from the Tiny Keepsakes stamp set and added a few snowflake sequins to the inside to pull the theme through – you could also add a second panel to the inside of the hat tag if you’d like to write more. Attach the hat tag to the box by punching a small hole just above the hat brim and then threading through Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle ribbon and tie a bow.
I hope you enjoyed these simple but super cute Mini Curvy Keepsakes snowmen boxes. You can still get the Tiny Keepsakes Bundle, Everyday Label Punch, and the Let it Snow Embellishments Kit (should be available December 2nd) in my Online Store.
