I truly meant to share this Chiclet Treat Holder before Halloween and actually thought I had! Even told some of my customers it was on my blog!! Went to look for it and it's no where to be found. Uh Oh!! Sometimes I wonder about my mind......LOL
I took pictures to make up a tutorial, so now I'm sharing it!! And I made up one for the Christmas Holiday so you can STILL use it!! I found this idea on Dawn O's blog and just LOVED it.
Isn't that just the cutest thing you have ever seen. And...inside is a box of chiclets. You can use kind of boxed candy.....and yes, I did find the chiclets at Big Lots - also I have heard the Dollar Stores might have them!!
Here are the supplies I used for the Santa one
Stamp Set: Tags 4 You (131820 W, 131823 C, page 37 Holiday Catalog)
Card Stock: Real Red, Basic Black, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer Paper (124005, page 156); Seasons of Style Designer Series Paper (132340, page 23 Holiday Catalog)
Ink: Basic Black
Punch: Label Bracket (132153, page 37 Holiday Catalog), Word Window (119857, page 180)
Embellishments: Candy Dots Brad Bases (132293, page 171) Candy Dots Brights (130931, page 171)
Here's a quick little tutorial using the Halloween ones, but you can just change out the colors!!
Chiclets Treat Holder
- Cut card base 3” x 11”. Score at 3 ¼” and 7 ½”
2. Cut a piece of Designer Series paper 3 ¼” x 2 ¾”. Adhere this piece to the end that measures 3 ½” from the score line
3. At the opposite end, using your Word Window Punch, line up the punch at the edge and punch. Then line up the punch on the other side and punch again – this will lengthen the hole!
4. Add Sticky Strip tape under the punch out (on the opposite side that the designer series paper is on)
5. Fold up on the score line and insert your chiclets package into the opening. Then adhere the sticky tape
6. Cut a piece of card stock 11” x 1”. Score at 5 ½”. Wrap around your treat package and add a brad. Cut a ribbon end.
I used our Candy Dots Brads (123392) and then added the candy dot
7. Add a sentiment on the front making sure to adhere just to the band, so it will slip on and off
Just simple and quick - you can make a bunch of them in no time at all!
