How fun is this!! We have been having so much fun playing around with some sort of smores box after seeing Becky Robert's box.
This isn't an actual "box" but something we created with a sheet of acetate. You can see the actual measurements and layout at the end of this post. We made a lid from a piece of white card stock. The measurements are 4-1/4" x 4-3/4" and scored and 1" all the way around. We sponged the lid with Creamy Caramel. We ran a piece of patterned paper from My Mind's Eye across the middle. We layered a Chocolate Chip 1-3/4" scallop circle and a Naturals Ivory 1-1/2" circle. The little smore was colored with Copic markers. The stamp is from Stampin' Up's Under the Stars.
You can see how the acetate is cut from the picture below. The lid holds the sides together kind of like the explosion boxes many of you have made. We filled the "box" with 2 graham cracker squares, a square of Hershey chocolate and 2 stacker marshmallows. You should look for these marshmallows....we love them! Notice they are flat and oblong!
The pattern for the acetate - a 6-3/4" x 7-1/4". Along the 7-1/4" side, score at 2-1/4" and 5". On the 6-3/4" side, score at 2-1/4", 4-1/2".









How cute--love it!
