Big Shot Scallop Envelope Treats

I made these treats plus more using the retired Summer Picnic DSP for the gals on my Home & School Board.
I got the idea from Splitcoast Stampers here.
I started by cutting 2 pieces each of Bashful Blue, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red card stock from the Scallop Envelope die. Then I ran each piece thru the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka-dots textured impressions folder. To make the little box that fits 2 Ghirardelli chocolate squares, cut the bottom of each envelope down to 1/2 inch and adhere the sides and bottom. Then I punched the top with the Word Window punch. Tart and Tangy images were stamped in Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red. The images were punched out with the 1 1/4 inch circle punch and layered onto card stock punched with the 1 3/8 inch circle punch. "Thank you" from Teeny Tiny Wishes was stamped then punched out with the Word Window punch. Finally, pieces of 1/2 inch Bashful Blue, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red striped grosgrain ribbon were tied on each box. The girls just loved them!
Here's my recipe:
Stamps: Tart & Tangy and Teeny Tiny Wishes
Papers: WW, Bashful Blue, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red
Inks: Bashful Blue Classic Stamp pad, Old Olive Stampin write marker, Pumpkin Pie Classic Stamp pad, Real Red Stampin Write marker
Accessories: Word Window punch, 1 1/4 inch and 1 3/8 inch circle punches, Perfect Polka dots textured impressions folder, Big Shot Scallop envelope die, 1/2 inch Bashful Blue, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red striped grosgrain ribbon

Jennie,
I'm so happy I came across this project! It is exactly what I was looking for...needed a Big Shot project for a workshop on Tuesday and my creative brain was not thinking until I saw this. Perfect box for the It's the Thought stamp set :-) Good job on these!
