Christmas Mini Treat Bag Wallet

Some of you might recognize this Candy Wallet from my Halloween verson I shared last month.  I had the design of a mini wallet in my head to hold the Creepy Cash I found at Target's Dollar Spot.  Then I received a fabulous swap from fellow Control Freak Patty Bennett at Founder's Circle and I thought - what?...how did she know what was in my head?!  Though her gift card holder was made with our larger Kraft Bags - it was basically what I had dreamed about for my mini wallet.  Great minds think alike!  I made these for a gift for my DOstamperSTARS team that attended the Stampin' Up! On Stage event this past weekend.

Dawn's Wallet Tips
  • Cut a treat bag using Real Red Envelope Paper (2015 Holiday Catalog) with Mini Treat Bag Thinlit Die.  Assemble using Fast Fuse.
  • Fold up from bottom about 2".  (Note: depending on your candy - will determine how far up or down you'll place your fold)
  • Wrap 1" x 8" strip of Home For Christmas Designer Series Paper around the treat bag and adhere ends together in the back (this will hold the "wallet" together)
  • Tie Mossy Meadow 5/8" Striped Cotton Ribbon around the treat bag
  • Stamp greeting from Oh What Fun stamp set in Mossy Meadow onto scrap piece of Very Vanilla cardstock.  Die cut with Banner Framelits.  
  • Punch 1/8" hole in corner of banner tag and tie on with Cherry Cobbler Thick Baker’s Twine.
  • Color rhinestone with red permanent marker and attach to holly leaves on banner tag
  • Stamp greeting with Mossy Meadow ink onto 2-7/8" x 3-1/4" Very Vanilla panel.  Insert into top section of wallet
  • Insert candy into lower section of  wallet
  • Enjoy!
