Today I’m sharing some little treat boxes I made with the new Dinoroar Designer Series Paper and the Dino Days stamp set. It’s the same basic box I shared a few days ago – you can see that post here. It holds a Reese’s Big Cup perfectly. I made these for our Candy Hearts team play date. I thought the playful paper pattern was appropriate for the occasion. (And everyone got their treat – I didn’t eat them all before they got there.)
