12 Days of Christmas Day 4-Ghirardelli Squares Treat Holder

Hi everyone! Thanks for visiting me for day 4 of my 12 days of Christmas projects. Today, I have for you a quick and simple treat holder. This treat holder holds one Ghirardelli Squares chocolate goodie. And it uses only one small piece of paper. The paper measurement = 3 ¼” x 5”, scored at 2 3/8”, 2 5/8” on the 5” side. It's really simple to make. Just cut the paper and score. Then fold on the score lines and cut a diagonal opening on the top right corner. Then take a small piece of sticky strip to secure the bottom so the candy does not fall out. Then to dress it up, I punched two small holes on the right bottom side and tied it with one of our sweater trim that's available in our Holiday Catalog right now. I finished the front decorations by stamping the gingerbread from the Scentsational Season Stamp Set that is also available in the Holiday Catalog. This stamp set also comes with coordinating framelits to make it easy to cut out the image. There is also a cute candy cane, Christmas tree, mug, and star in that stamp set. Any one of those images would be cute to decorate this holder with. In fact, if you were making a few of these to give to friends, families, or co-workers, you could make a couple different sets.
 

 
Hope you liked this idea. Let me know if you have any questions. Look below for the supply list and come back and visit me tomorrow for day 5. Happy stamping.
