If you missed me on Facebook Live last night, you may not be aware that I am now doing my Wednesday Night Lives from the Buckeye Inklings Stampers Group. Please click here and join this group if you would like to get facebook notifications and updates from me.

I chose to make last night’s projects with the Monster Bash suite from our upcoming 2019 Holiday Catalog. These projects are easily adaptable to any theme or holiday. They are very similar to tradtional pillow boxes with rounded ends.
Instead of a rounded flaps on each end, this pillow box version has diamond-shaped flaps. It is made from a 6″ square of designer paper scored at 1 3/8″, 2 3/4″, 4 1/8″ and 5 1/2″. The video shows directions for scoring and cutting the flaps.
Inspired by Astrid Hofman’s project (click here), I also made a standing version of this favor.
It is also made from a 6″ square of designer paper, scored at 1 3/8″, 2 3/4″, 4 1/8″ and 5 1/2″. One end is made into a box bottom, and one end has the diamond-shaped flaps.
This post is meant to supplement the Facebook Live video which shows the complete construction of these favors (click here).

Our upcoming holdiay catalog also includes these fun pre-cut, pre-scored Coffin Treat Boxes. I added a simple tag from the Monster Bash suite of products. The pieces to make the coffin come as shown below.
These go together easily with just a little folding and adhesive, leaving more time for the fun part – decorating!
