Clear Matchboxes

Happy Saturday!!! Ready for some weekend crafting? I made some little matchbox favors with clear covers (so you can see the goodies on the inside!!!). They fit 4 of the miniature sized chocolates...click here for a pattern. They were so easy and fun to make!!





The smaller pattern piece is for the cardstock tray and the larger pattern piece is for the clear acetate cover. Cut along solid lines and fold along dotted lines. Use double stick tape on the 4 corner tabs of the box...and also along one edge of the acetate (as shown in the photo below):



Then just slide the tray into the acetate cover:



Stamps used: Henry and chocolate bar (Hello cling stamp set) and #A106 (Chocolate dipped).

Try it...you'll have fun!!!
