Kit Kat Treat Holder

Hello my friends! How goes?  Today's Make-It Monday is going to feature the NEW Beautiful Autumn Stamp & Punch Bundle and some super yummy little treats!

This little treat holder is super simple and easy peezy to make, which makes em a perfect gift for anyone you come in contact with! It'll put a smile on someone's face, for sure!

Since this is a Make-It Monday project, I have a youtube video showing how to create the box.  But you may want to print out this template too.  It gives you all the measurements of the paper & score lines, as well as the sizes of the DSP that I used to cover the box. :-)

In the video, I assembled the box and then added the DSP, but if you wanted to add the DSP first, it would go on like this:

Sweets for your Sweet! Valentine Treat Box / Card Combo

Happy Valentine's Day!

I have a special treat for you today.  It's a chocolate box and Valentine card gift, all in one, and it's SERIOUSLY CUTE!

This adorable little treat box could easily be modified for any occasion or celebration, but it's just perfect for Valentine's Day!

To complete the project as I've created it,

You'll need:

Whisper White Cardstock
Real Red Cardstock
From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper
Heart Doilies
21 inches of 3/8" Real Red Cotton or Satin ribbon
White Polka Dotted Tulle Ribbon
Red Rhinestones
Snail
Snips
Dimensionals
9 Hershey Nuggets

Use the two Templates here to cut and score your box base out of Whisper White Cardstock

You'll also need a piece of Real Red Cardstock cut at 8 3/8" x 3 1/4" for the card itself, and score it at 4 3/16" on the long side.  This makes the card base that you'll attach to the top of your box.

Cut another piece of Whisper White Cardstock at 4 1/16" x 3 1/8".  This will be the inside layer of your card.

Then, cut a piece of that fabulous Designer Series Paper 4" x 3" for the front layer of your card.

Ok, let's put it all together now.  Assemble the box base as you do a standard box, gluing the tabs to the adjacent sides.

Wrap the Real Red Ribbon around the perimeter of the box base.  I tied mine in a standard square knot, but you could tie it into a bow if you like. You'll just need a couple more inches in length for that.

Attach a strip of Tear & Tape to one end of the 10 1/4" long piece of cardstock and wrap it over and around the box base, then seal. You want it to be snug-ish, but not so tight that it can't be slid off.

For the card itself, burnish the 4 3/16" line to have the card folded in half. Use snail to attach the layer of DSP to the front, and the White Cardstock piece to the inside.

I used the Heartfelt stamp set to decorate my card.  The " FROM MY HEART TO YOURS" stamp fits perfectly inside that foil rimmed heart that can be punched out of the DSP.

I love lots of layers, so I used dimensionals to pop up the doily before adding it to the card. Then I popped up the punched foil heart even more and added it on too!

To give the card some nice texture, I added a bow made from White Polka Dotted Tulle ribbon.  I also added a few little Red Rhinestones to the front!

So cute!

Inside the card, I stamped Happy Valentine's Day and a couple little cutesy hearts too.

I used Tear & Tape to also attach the card to the top of the box.  I wanted it to be stuck really well.  So once you've got your card made, go ahead and attach it to the box.

Now you're all done with a really great Valentine's Day gift!  I hope you enjoyed today's project and tutorial!

Until Next Time,
Happy Crafting!

Stampers Showcase Blog Hop!!

Good morning friends!! I am so happy to have you here today.  I have an exciting blog hop to share with you.  I have invited some of my friends and fabulous Stampin' Up! demos to join me in a fun hop.  This hop will happen the last Monday of each month and will have a different "THEME" each time.  This month's theme is "THANKS".  You will see a great many fabulous projects along the way, but they will all carry this same theme.  And, what a wonderful topic to start us off with right? :-D

My project for our hop is going to be this fantastic little treat package! I just love it. It'll hold TWO miniature Hershey bars, which makes it just the right size! hehe.  Of course you could also put a plethora of other treats and gifts in it. And, the size is easily adjusted for what you need.

For this size, we'll start with a 5 1/2" x 5 1/4" piece of cardstock or DSP (designer series paper).  This will be the base of your package, so use whatever you'll want for this.  I used the fabulous Gingham Gala DSP from the Occasions 2019 catalog.

I used the Stitched all Around bundle for this project because it has that adorable Thank You stamp and the decorative circle die that makes quick and easy work of decorating the treat package.  It only LOOKS like you worked hard. hehe.  I wanted to keep it monochromatic so I used Highland Heather ink, cardstock and sheer ribbon (from the 2019 Sale-a-Bration brochure).

I stamped the image on whisper white cardstock and then cut it with the framelit, to begin with. 

While I was die cutting, I went ahead and used one of my layering circles to cut a Highland Heather background piece for our tag. 

I put a strip of Tear & Tape along the edge of the LONG SIDE of the Gingham Gala DSP.  I burnished it down really good and then made a tube of the paper, attaching the opposite edge to the Tear & Tape.  Next, I kinda squeezed the tube flat just a bit so that I could slide it under the punch on the Envelope Punch Board.  As you can see here, I lined up the edge on the 1" mark and punched a notch out on all four corners.  This makes a fantastic design to the package and also gives a spot for the ribbon to tie and stay on. 

Once you've tied one end closed with ribbon, now is the time to add the treats! CHOCOLATE!!! YUM!  And then tie the other end closed.  What a sweet little treat!

I used some dimensionals to lift the sentiment just a bit. I wanted it to match well, but not fade into the background.  I also added just a touch of  Wink of Stella to add a little glitz and glimmer to it.  

I hope you liked today's project!  It's quick and simple but also very cute.  Anyone would be happy to receive such a lovely little gift. 

Please continue along the hop and check out all the other fabulous projects to show THANKS!

I'd love to hear what you think about today's project and this hop! Please leave a comment below and tell me all about it. :-) 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a fantastic rest of your day.

Until next time,
Happy Crafting!
