Strawberry Boxes with CTMH Artiste Cartridge

My darling daughter is a strawberry crazed girl.  When spring time rolls around and the huge 4lb containers of them hit Costco, I buy two a week and we go through them all.  So its not surprising that one of the first projects I created with the new CTMH Artiste cartridge was a pair of the adorable Strawberry Boxes for my girl.

I cut these at 4.5" to get two to a page which is not as big as you can go for this box - I think the max is about 6.25".  Here is a shot against a ruler so you can see the size.  They are just right for a mini candy bar, a small baggie of candy, a pair of earrings, etc.  They'd be very cute to make tiny and put in a basket or to use as a table decoration/party favor for a summer themed party.  

I ran the cut shape through my Cuttlebug with the Polka Dot folder (I folded the cut out in half so it fit in one go).

I used a roll of jute twine I had to thread through the Cricut trimmed holes and then up through the center of the strawberry leaves and tied a bow on top.  Easy-peasy!  Love how adorable these look and that some very old Christmas paper I had worked PERFECTLY for the cute leaves!

I hope I'm wetting your whistle for the new CTMH Artiste Cartridge that is available on August 1st!
