You could do a couple of things. If you have greeting card software, or something like Photoshop, you can print whatever you would like on cardstock, then turn it over and print the box. As I was explaining above, you have to lengthen the box, then reapply the butterfly or daisy. You could also print the box on cardstock, and use scrapbook or wrapping paper with a glue stick and get your print that way. Hope this makes sense.
Thanks Linedancer! I have Photoshop so that sounds easier than gluing the scrapbook paper to it. But scrapbook paper is probably cuter! Decisions, decisions!!
I didn't see this mentioned anywhere for this particular project...I read it on another cookie site...
You can line the inside bottom of your box with a square piece of wax paper to prevent any cookie grease from staining through.
I thought of this, too. For a prettier look, you could cut a square piece of FanciFoil to line the bottom. I'm thinking of doing this for my niece's wedding favors. I found some fairly inexpensive (& cute) individual cookie boxes at www.brpboxshop.com that I need to see if she likes.
Thanks for that link GeminiRJ I have been looking for something like these boxes and as you say at a fairly reasonable price

I scaled down this template to a size I wanted on graph paper, then made a template of that, printed it on cardstock that I had stamped patterns on and made boxes for individual cookies for mothers at our church. I tied them with ribbon or fancy ties, aling with a tag and everyone loved them. I didn't use the butterfly or flower part at all. I took that off my template as it would have been way too much. Here is what they looked like (I made 50+ of these boxes!)
I emailed them and asked about a cupcake boxes.
She replied that they were working on one and should have it available in a week or two.

glad you like the boxes!
Love2bake... Yes, I stamped on the cardstock myself. It was fun to see how the patterns came out after I folded the boxes!
Omicake... How funny! I have never done any kind of scrapbooking before. Someone just invited me to a class and I declined, stating I prefer crafts in which I can eat the results!
I think that I will be making these boxes for a long time to come, especially since I can scale the size with graph paper! I love little boxes!
Beautiful cake boxes!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing with us
Love2bake... you just use the squares on the graph paper to make everything symmetrical. Eg. Adding two squares on the graph paper on one side means adding two squares on the other to make it proportionate. The graph paper just makes it easier to do instead of taking out rulers, protractors, compasses or whatever else it takes! The little squares on the graph paper just makes it easier.
Yes. I just drew the whole thing new on the graph paper. At the time this template came out, my computer was down and there was only so much I could do from my iphone, so i got busy with the graph paper! I prefer it that way because then i was able to completely remove the flower or butterfly.
