Stamping With Blue Moon Creations

My Paper Pumpkin Christmas Tree Boxes

My Paper Pumpkin 241

I needed to create thank you gifts for the Ladies of Wetmore who attended a recent techniques class.

While doing a general search on Pinterest, I saw the perfect idea for my thank you gifts.  Thank you to  Connie Collins for inspiring me to use the pie shaped cardboard boxes that came in the October My Paper Pumpkin kit.  Connie’s idea was to make these boxes into Christmas trees.  Brilliant!  I quickly assembled and decorated the boxes.  I used the Flower Patch stamp set and coordinating Flower Fair thinlits to create leaves. Buttons, snowflake sequins, candy dots, baker’s twine and a banner cut Merry and Bright greeting were added.  Then, I needed something to fill them.  I wanted to give my guests a baked treat, so I got out my favorite molasses cookie recipe.  Instead of making cookies in the usual roundish shape, I rolled out the dough and with a pizza cutter, cut out pie shaped cookies that would fit in the pie shaped boxes. Once the cookies were inside the box, I wrapped pretty ribbon around the edges and added a coordinating bow at the top. Easy, peasy!
