SBTD October Blog Hop Holiday Gifts

It's time to hop along with the SBTD November Blog Hop as we showcase Holiday Gifts as our theme this month. You will be visiting with talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you.

Today I am sharing with you two cute little Christmas treat holders created using the Little Treats Bundle paired with the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper, both from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. I love the traditional colors of this designer series paper and the pattern is very festive and perfect for a little holiday gift for someone special.

Measurements:

Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper - 12" x 6"

(large enough to cut both treat holders with die from the Little Treat Box Dies)

Real Red cardstock - for tag die cut

Garden Green cardstock

- For tag die cut

Very Vanilla cardstock

- For present stamped die cut and scalloped oval die cuts

Whisper White cardstock - for Santa hat stamped die cut

These cute treat holders are so simple to create and so much fun to decorate. I love that the images in the Little Treats stamp set coordinate with the Little Treat Box Dies to make it simple to create all the elements for these treat holders. The wonderful thing about the designs in the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper is that one side is Real Red and the other side is Garden Green, so I was able to die cut the pieces for both boxes from one 12" x 6" piece. The boxes are easy to assemble and need minimal adhesive. The elements for each treat box are basically the same with the only difference being the Santa Hat image stamped with Real Red Classic ink an the Present image stamped with Garden Green Classic ink. I heat embossed the sentiment onto each tag using Whisper White Embossing Powder and I I used Basic Rhinestone Jewels for a touch of bling.

For the ribbon, I used the Gold Metallic Ribbon for the Garden Green treat holder and I used a piece of Whisper White Faux Linen Ribbon for the Real Red treat holder, that I colored using the Dark Real Red Stampin' Blends Marker, to color the ribbon to coordinate. These treat holders can be used to hold candy or a small gift like jewelry. I love that the Little Treats Bundle has images and dies to create wonderful treat holders for a variety of occasions beyond Christmas.
