First, I want to wish my “kid” brother, Greg, a very happy “29th” birthday today! Gregors – thank you for being my best friend for life! I am honored & blessed to be your “seester” and “Aunt Julie” to your beautiful babies! ♥
Onto today’s project! I’ve got a Criss-Cross Treat Box for you!
I was inspired by fellow demonstrator Angie Juda (Chic n Scratch) and decided to “pixiefy” the box to use our Tag Topper Punches! I fell in LOVE with how the sides of the box look!
This project features items from the Whale of a Time product suite, but can easily be adapted for any occasion with any of our product suites! I can’t wait to see what you come up with when you try this fun box!
Without further ado, here is my video tutorial:
And here is the template for reference (not to scale):
TIP: Right-click on the image, open in a new tab/window, and print!
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful & blessed weekend!

Hi! Your projects are so cute! I just found you on pinterest and tried to join your blog but it won’t accept my email! Guess I better keep pinning!!
I slept through Wednesday’s Facebook Live (OOPS!!) when you demonstrated this adorable little box but I’ve been playing catch-up since your post on Friday. I’ve made 3 boxes so far and there’s definitely more to come – I LOVE this little box! Thanks, as always, Julie, for your super-clear and easy-to-follow tutorials.
Happy Birthday to Greg!
Great little box, too. Your videos are always so awesome!
Thank you so much, Karen!
Julie, I just love your posts. You are very well spoken and your projects are so wonderful. Thank you so much for being an inspiration to me.
I am a demonstrator in central Arkansas and I love it.
Thank you so much, Patience! I’m honored to inspire you!
I tried to subscribe but was told my email looked suspicious. So sad.
That’s so strange! I’ve sent you a PM.
You look so alike! Happy for you both. Blessings! Christine
Awww, thank you, Christine!
I LOVE the pic of you and your brother! You look so much alike! Happy birthday to “Gregor’s!” That’s so funny, I used to call my brother-in-Law, whose name is also Greg, the very same thing! Thank you for such a sweet project! That is one of my favorite suites! Have a great weekend!!
Thank you so much, Sherry! The genes are strong!
