Hello there! Today I have a sweet little treat holder custom-made for a Ghiradelli square. I loved this design from Erica Cerwin at Pink Buckaroo Designs and thought I'd make one for myself. It's so quick, easy & adorable-I love it! I'm still focusing on my PRODUCT OF THE WEEK-the So Hoppy Together stamp set, a Sale-A-Bration reward that you can get for FREE with a $50 order, but not for much longer!
I used the Stitched Rectangle Framelits to cut out a rectangle from Balmy Blue Cardstock and used the die measuring 4 3/4" x 3 1/2". I scored on the long side at 3/4", 1", 3 3/4" & 4". I scored the short side at 1" & 1 1/4". I then cut off both bottom corners up to the score lines, and used my Bone Folder to fold on all the score lines. I added Liquid Tombow to the bottom of the front 2 flaps and adhered to form a cute little pocket.
Next I wrapped a piece of Gingham Gala DSP around the holder measuring 6" x 3/4". It's just a sliver short but the DSP measures 6" x 6". So you could hide the seam in the back or underneath the frog, or use a different paper that measures 7" in length.
I stamped the frog with Memento black ink onto Whisper White Cardstock and used Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends to color him in. I cut him out with Paper Snips and attached him with a Dimensional. For my DEAL OF THE WEEK-you get to pick out a Stampin' Blends Marker of your choice for FREE with a $30 order! There are 30 colors to pick from and you can choose the Light or Dark version.

I stamped the sentiment with Balmy Blue ink onto Whisper White Cardstock. I wish I would have used the small stitched rectangle that Erica used-I'll make sure I do next time! I ran a piece of Whisper White Baker's Twine through an In Color Button, tied a bow and attached it with a Glue Dot. So cute! These little treat holders would be so quick & easy the next time you want to share some love...and chocolate:)
