Nugget Boxes...oh my!

This is what I spent my day doing yesterday.



I had tried making these boxes one other time without much success. But yesterday's venture worked out much better. Not sure exactly why...maybe the pattern was better? I got the pattern from HERE on SplitCoastStampers. I made two sizes...the 1x6 long (THANKS) and the 10 short (THANK YOU).

Here is the THANKS open so you can see all of it:



Here is the THANK YOU open:



And here are both sizes closed:



I had originally planned on all of them being 10's...but ran out of nuggets (as is...this is 2 bags of Hershey's Nuggets!) So I shortened the last box to "Thanks" instead of Thank You. They will live.

On the 10's boxes I used my coluzzle and cut out an opening on the top and then covered it with acetate so you can see inside. On the 6 box I stamped a strip for the top and then added "bling" to the centers of the snowflakes.

The main stamp set is THIS one from Clear Dollar Stamps. For the letters to spell out the words I used my Karen Foster Snap Stamps.

Hmm...so what do you think? I love how they turned out!
