Supplies
- AC Cardstock (I got it from PumpkinCartCrafts.com) I ALWAYS used this cardstock when I need solids. Cuts like a dream and great quality!
- Stamp sentiments are from Pink by Design.
- Twine is from The Twinery. Love this stuff!
- M&M candy bags can be found on eBay, clearbags.com, etc. You can use plastic tubes if you prefer, I like the baggies because they are cheaper.

Instructions and Design Tips
- Cut a box you'd like to use. (You can use SVGCuts' Big Boutique Bags and Boxes SVG Kit) I created my own 4.5" x 4.5" box so the cut files are all to fit that particular size box.
- I used a lot of 3d foam adhesive squares for dimension. I love the way they make certain elements pop out!
- I used a tan ink for most of my edges. You can also use chalk! Ink always adds a little something extra to you project!
- I didn't want to emboss too much, but I did use a 'weathered wooden look' folder for the barn and fence. I also added some embossing to the tractor tires.
- The hills are a circle and an oval cut free hand and layered.
- You can use shredded paper basket stuffing inside your box. This will help support the candy sticks better so they stand up and look cute!
With an 'oink-oink' here and an 'oink-oink there, I hope you have enjoyed this little project and it inspires you to get creating! You can make these for ANY holiday! Baby Showers, Birthdays, etc. Enjoy and happy crafting!
