Remember this post, where I showed you how to make paper rosettes? I mentioned that after you die-cut the scallop circles, you would have little parts of the smaller scallop circle left over. I made about a dozen paper rosettes, so I had plenty of these:

I can't bring myself to get rid of even the smallest of scraps, so here is what I did with mine. I just placed them randomly around the card. I overlapped some, too. Kind of gives the card an Asian look, no?

Thankfully, the blog-Gods are on our side today and everything in cyberspace seems to be working correctly. Finally!

As promised, here are the template and tutorial for this fun mini take-out box. Make a bunch for your kids to bring to their friends in school on Halloween! They will definitely win "most popular kid" for the day!

Click HERE for the template. You can print it directly onto an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of decorative paper. It will be so much easier!

In addition to decorative paper, you will also need a Crop-a-Dial to punch the holes, and some wire and ribbon for the handle.

You can add a "Happy Thanksgiving" tag and place a box at each guest's seat as a fun gift for your Thanksgiving feast.

Friends, I have been having problems with my blog for days now. Since it seems to be working fine right now, here is a quick look at a mini take-out box that you can make and fill with Halloween goodies. Hopefully, the blog-Gods will be on my side tomorrow and I will post the template and tutorial for you. Fingers crossed.

P.S. In the meantime, if any of you know anything about 403 Forbidden errors, can you send me a quick email? info@ewillow.com. It will save me from taking my laptop and smashing it on the floor, as I have been tempted to do for several days now. :)
