How To Make Simple, Sweet Treat Holders

These treat holders are really cute and so easy to make. They would be such a nice little gift to give out for Valentine’s Day or just to let someone know you appreciate them.

 
Sweet Treat Boxes both.jpg
 

In the video I’ll show you how to make these treat holders. There are great patterns in the Delightful Berry and the True Love Designer Series Papers to make these treat holders.

 
 

I used the True Love Designer Series Paper and Blushing Bride Metallic Ribbon on this one. The heart was cut from a piece of Love You Always Foil Sheets using the Be Mine Stitched Dies.

I punched the top with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. The sentiment was stamped with Poppy Parade Ink on a 7/8 strip of Basic White and punched to create a banner end with the Triple Banner Punch.

A piece of Ghirardelli Chocolate fits perfectly in this holder.

Here’s the template I used with the measurements.

  • Designer Series Paper - 7 x 3 1/2

  • Score on the 7” side at 1/4 and 3/4, then flip and score the other side at 1/4 and 3/4

  • Score on the 3 1/2 side at 1/2, 2 1/2 and 3

  • Cut away from the longer end to the 2 1/2 score line on both sides.

  • Fold and adhere as shown on the video.

I used the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper which is part of the Berry Blessings Bundle, a Free Sale-A-Bration product with a qualified order. The ribbon is from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack.

I punched the top with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. The sentiment was stamped with Poppy Parade Ink on a 7/8 strip of Basic White and punched to create a banner end with the Triple Banner Punch.

I love how bright and cheerful this one is with the berry paper.

This is one of the bundles in featured in my January Simple Stampers Tutorial pdf that you can get for FREE with an order from my Online Store during the month of January.
