Hi everyone!

I wanted to thank everyone who stopped by my blog yesterday and left me such sweet messages regarding all 4 of my projects. I loved being a part of this hop and sharing Julie's Crinkle Ribbon and helping her promote her new venture 3 Girl Jam.

I got tons of emails and messages regarding my candy corn treat containers so I thought I would share a picture tutorial on how to make these very simple treats!

Tools needed:

ScoreBoard

Ribbon

Orange, White and Yellow Cardstock

ATG Gun or sticky adhesive

( Picture Heavy so please bear with me)

Cut your orange cardstock to 8 1/2 x 3 1/2



score in the middle of the long side at 4 1/4



cut 2 pieces of yellow and white cardstock~ both at 3 1/2 x 1 3/8



you want to add a small mark at 1 3/4 on both the top and the bottom so you have a marker to score diagonally to each outer side. You are making a triangle with the point on top at both ends



attach your yellow cardstock pieces right slightly from the center score line on each half.
you want the white cardsotck at the top of both halves (as seen in the picture)



Using the score lines you already made on the orange cardstock...refold those lines adding the score lines to the additional yellow and white cardstock.
You also want to punch holes....centered between the edge and the triangle point.
To make this easier..fold the cardstock in half and punch both sides at once



You are ready to add your ribbon! 3 Girl Jam ribbon works awesome!!
I measured an 8 inch piece..you could go more if you want more ribbon hanging
These are going to 3rd graders who I know just want the treats inside :)

 

 

Then tie away...that's it easy easy easy!



All that is left to do is embellish the outside
I used My Creative Time circle die and All Around Halloween Stamp
Then just added a candy corn sticker from Martha Stewart to the center



Pretty easy when you see it laid out like this. I have been making them while watching TV at nights.Makes the time go fast and before you know it they are all done!
