Yeeeehaaaaaaaaaawww! Cowboy Triangle Treats!
Here’s a cute “Other Than A Card” project … it’s a “Triangle Treat Box”! Actually, the template itself is a large stamp from Inky Antics! One stamped impression on the back of your cardstock or patterned paper … a few scoring lines, a bit of ‘sticky strip’ .. and you are “good to go” …. or rather “good to give”! 
This one is simply a stamped image of the template onto River Rock cardstock, trimmed & scored on the dashed line impressions. Stamps on the outside of the cardstock? I simply used the ‘Western Wear Background’ from Inky Antics atop SU’s River Rock cardstock. {Click small image for larger view!}
In order to create a visual “window” or “porthole” into the box I used my CM cutting system. However, for a triangle window, I just trace around a cardstock template and cut out with a craft knife. It’s small, and takes no time at all. Adhere a small piece of “transparency” behind the “window/hole”. The template provides holes for accurate punching of matching holes … this could NOT be easier, unless someone else did it for you! (You can do this!) Add a tag if you wish, or just close it off with ribbon …. whatever works for the occasion/person! What do you think?! Have a party! How about enclosing the keys to a “new/old” drive for that new driver this year? These are quick & easy. Thanks for visiting!
