I prepared a box for this challenge. I used Art Philosophy Cartridge for my box. I press Fit a Page button to fit the 12" X 12" paper. My owl is from Paisley Cartridge cut at 2.75". The owl eyes is from Peachy Keen Stamp. For some of the layers of my owl, I used my Xyron to add glitter on them.
Here is my box:

I put inside the box Polvorones, what is this? These are puertorrican cookies. This cookies are awesome. Below is the recipe.
Polvorones:

2 egg yolks
½ teaspoon almond extract
2 ½ cup all-purpose flour

2 egg yolks
½ teaspoon almond extract
2 ½ cup all-purpose flour
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two trays of cookies. With a wooden spoon mix butter, shortening until combine. Add sugar, egg yolks and almond extract until smooth. Then add the flour gradually. Once mixed knead the mixture a little and form into small balls.
Place on a tray leaving a 1" space between Polvorones. Press a finger into the center of each ball and place in center guava paste or sprinkles. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.
