Super Mario Birthday: Coin Treat Boxes

Another favor for the party was a coin box full of chocolate coins! I made a template for these. Click here to download.

Print the image on nice cardstock.

Cut the image out with scissors.

Jefferson helped me with these favors as well!

So proud of himself.

If you have a paper cutter, you can get an embossing blade as well as a cutting blade. I used the black embossing blade to crease a line where I wanted to fold. If you don't have one of these, you can just fold on the dotted lines.

 

I embossed on the horizontal lines and the vertical lines.

It makes it really easy to fold once embossed.

I would suggest you get some glue dots or something similar for these. Using a liquid glue, like elmers, would take a long time to dry and you would have to wait for it to dry, holding it in place, between tabs.

I used these glue strips.

Glue the bottom and the sides.

Leave the tops open, so you can add a treat!

How did you print the boxes?

I am unable to print out the picture of the box. It gets cut off when I try to print.

Zandra-
The image is in a .pdf, so the size should stay the same. If you are printing from your computer, when the print box comes up, make sure the box Fit picture to frame is NOT clicked. This is the only reason I can think of that would cause the edges to be cut off.
