I love making little treat holders to hand out to the nice people I encounter regularly. The ones I have to share today have been around for some time. Actually I had a lady message me asking exactly how it went together. So after playing with it to help her, I decided I should make some to hand out. It is a Double Treat Holder. I have used it for Ghirardelli Chocolates and Tea Bags. This one has gorgeous DSP to make it extra special.
I have the directions at the bottom of the post. They are pretty simple to score and fold.
STAMPS & DIES
This sweet stamp is is from the Mixed Labels Bundle. And the adorable Die cut shape is made using one of the matching Dies. I love the stitching with detail around the edge. Plus the new shape is wonderful. On The opposite side of the treat holder I added a little note card. The sentiment from it is from the fabulous So Sincere stamp set. It is definitely one that is a keeper for some great sentiments.
The the opposite side of the treat holder is the exact same size as the front. You could add a second treat there in place of a note. Here is a view of that side.
PAPERS
This gorgeous paper is the Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper. It is back in stock now so Woohoo!! The gold marbling is on one side with red, cherry cobbler, pretty in pink, white, and gold. The stamping was done on good ol’ Basic White. So a simple supply project as well.
EXTRAS
The Cherry Cobbler and Gold ribbon used to hold the sides together is from Holiday Catalog that just went out. It is still available but with low inventory. For the bling I used the Gold Textured Adhesive Dots. There are three different sizes and I used the middle size to add a touch of gold to the main sentiment.
DIRECTIONS
The treat holder uses a 6X6 piece of DSP. Use your Simply Scored Scoring Tool. I have drawn a line down the center of mine from the 6″ mark using a Black Sharpie. This makes the steps for this project much easier. So….place the DSP on the scoring tool with a point at the 6″ mark and the other lines up in the 6″ line. You have a diamond shape. Score at 4 1/2 and 7 1/2. Make a turn in either direction and score at 5 1/4, 6, and 6 3/4.
Fold and burnish on all of the score lines. Decide which paper you want to be on the outside front folds, like where my sentiment is. Now fold the two side score folds towards the center. They overlap a bit and that is perfect. Then fold the three center scores with the center one making a mountain. Fold the other two so they meet to make the shape. There is no adhesive needed! Here is a view of the side so you can see those center score lines as they need to fold. Let me know if you have any problems.
