Elmo Pyramid Pals Gift or Candy Box Party Favor

Today I would like to share with you one of the fun "Playful Pals" Pyramid Pal Thinlit's die box I made.  

As you can see it's Elmo!!!  I thought it would be fun to make him into a party favor.  It can also be used as a gift box (without the window if you want to keep what's inside a secret).  Before I put the box together, I punched a hole and added a piece of window sheet to the inside.  Now I had a cute viewing window.  I added some red mini M&M's in a piece of cling wrap and tied it shut.  Don't make it too big or it won't fit inside and then the back won't close either.  

Here is how it's made:

I made my red pyramid (leaving the back open for candies or gifts) and then I punched out some circled for the eyes, nose and mouth. It was super simple to make.  I did stamp some curly "fur" on the outside using Real Red ink before I put the box together.

Yup, as simple as that.  He was SO quick and easy to make.  And REALLY fun too!!  They don't take much card stock and you can use scraps for the details.  And he would be a great addition to a kids party!

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
