Christmas Treats

Good Afternoon and welcome to another Freshly Brewed Projects Blog Hop with the Latte Girls. This week we are sharing creative ways to package those Christmas Treats we love to give.

At Christmas I love to give bundles of Cards to my friends and family as a treat. I also love to give Christmas Treats – just something small that I know someone will enjoy – something they like and something just for them!

Recently I held a Night Before Christmas Stamp Camp. It was a one day retreat and we made many different projects using the Night Before Christmas Suite.

One of the projects was this sweet Christmas Treats holder ..

It was super fun to make and quite easy to do. To work out my sizing of the treat box I bundled the yummy crunchy ginger biscuits from Ikea in a cello bag. Once it was in the bag I positioned it on my Grid Paper Sheet from Stampin’ Up! to calculate how wide, tall and deep I needed to make my box. The box came together easily with those measurements.

I cut pieces of the DSP to size to fit the front, back and sides. When I saw the sticker sheets in the Memories and More Card pack I knew I had to use that Reindeer! I cut an oval with my Stitched Shapes Die set and then adhered the Reindeer, Sentiment and little stars – all included in the Memories and More Card Pack.

Now you might be wondering where did I get those cello bags? why they are our Medium Clear Envelopes with the flap cut off!

That gorgeous Classic Weave printed ribbon was the perfect finishing touch.

Christmas Treats do not need elaborate boxes or bags. Just something quick and easy … oh and pretty and just maybe a little festive for Christmas! I hope you like the little Christmas Treats Box I created.

Now it’s time to go hopping! Let’s see what the other Latte Girls have created for you today …
