Hanging treat holder


I'll be creating all kinds of fun, easy projects for you to gift to family and friends this year. I hope you enjoy the time in your craft space, and take the time to get creative. Let me know what kinds of projects you like, and I'll work on getting more tutorials prepared!

Let's get started. 

For this project, you'll need:
Cardstock (3" x 5 1/2")
Patterned paper (5 1/2" x 1 1/2")
Coordinating paper scrap for the sentiment
Tag punch
Oval dies or punch
Stamp set
Stamp block
Bone folder
Ink

Check out the video tutorial here.

Step 1) Score the cardstock on the 3" side at 1/2" and 2 1/2"
             Score the 5 1/2" side at  2 1/2 and 3"

Step 2) Burnish the score lines with the bone folder, and fold the two short sides under. Punch both ends with the tag punch (Delightful Tag punch used here)

Step 3) Trim the four side pieces so they are straight, and cut the four centre tabs to the score lines.

Step 5) Put adhesive on one of the side pieces, and the bottom tab. Fold together to form the box.

Step 6) Put adhesive on both ling sides of the patterned paper, and place one edge on the centre of the box. Slowly fold around the box, pressing down as you go.

Step 7) Stamp your sentiment on the oval shape, and adhere to the scalloped oval tag. Put dimensionals on the back to pop it up a bit, and stick down.

Step 8) Thread the ribbon through the holes and knot it. I used Real Red sheer ribbon from the 2020 holiday mini catalogue. Pull the ribbon up, put the chocolate or other treat inside, and you're done!

You can use the treat holder for a tree ornament, tag for a gift, table decorations, or even an advent calendar. The possibilities are endless!

12 Crafts of Christmas day 10- twist and close box

Image
 Today's project is a fun twist (ha!) on a gift box. While it looks challenging, it's really quite simple to put together, and all you need is cardstock, patterned paper, adhesive, a ruler and stylus or scoring tool. Trim 1/2 inch from your cardstock so you're left with an 8 1/2 x 10 1/2 piece. Score on the long edge at 2 1/2, 5, 7 1/2, and 10 inches. Score the short side at 2 1/2 inches, flip, and score the other side at 2 1/2 inches.  Mark one side as shown 1 1/4 inches from each score line, and score from the mark to the bottom corner. Fold and burnish to crease.  Cut the bottom of the box as shown to the bottom score line. Discard the small tab at the bottom.  Cut your patterned paper to 4 3/4 x 2 1/4. Run adhesive along the side and connect the two edges. Apply adhesive on the bottom edges and seal the box. Working from one side, pinch the top closed, and your box is done!  Check out the video here. Check out all of our projects as the 12 days continue here...
