Sweet and Simple Cookie Box

August 18, 2011 by Holly Gagnon 21 Comments

I made this little cookie box to enter into a few fun challenges. I had many ideas on how to decorate this box but I just decided to keep it Sweet and Simple.

Cookie Box

The box is made out of only 3 colors (including the box paper) per the Whimsical Wednesday Challenge rules.  I made 3 cuts for the scallop, circle and sentiment.  I added the same ribbon in 3 different places as an embellishment.   Since this is a cookie box it could be brought to a picnic for the CWC challenge or given as a gift for My Craft Spot and contain ribbons per the paper Variety challenge.

 

Cookie Box
Thanks for looking!

    Wow, this is amazing. Great idea to use the ribbon as your embellishment. I NEVER would have thought of that:) Great color scheme too. Even though I did not see any cookies..just by you mentioning them made me want some, yummy. Thank you for joining us at Whimsical Wednesdays.
