Love You To The Moon and Back....

Hi, there!  Today I have a cute little treat box to share with you.  This was for the Free 4 All challenge over on SCS.  You can find the instructions and a lot more examples HERE.  I am going to stuff some money into this for my oldest son.  I just went to his first Middle School conference, and his teachers had nothing but good things to say.  He also has all A's and B's, so I am one proud mama.  I was worried about middle school being a big adjustment for him, with his ADHD.  He has been so busy with football and his First Lego League, and still managed to get wonderful grades.  I am beyond happy!

Onto the treat box....I used stamps from Tradefish Designs set, Out of This World.  It goes perfectly with October Afternoon's Rocket Age collection.  The moon is paper pieced and the UFO on the inside is stamped on patterned paper and also colored with some copic markers.  I added a little velcro for the closure.  These are so easy to make, and all you need is a 6x6 piece of patterned paper and a scoring tool!  You will find what the box looks like opened below:
Thanks for stopping by!

What a cute little treat box- I love what you did with the stamps! It is always great when your kids are doing well- they never tell you how much anxiety these kids will cause you worrying about them and how they are doing!! :)Amy

Have A Great Weekend.
