craftykarendesigns: Lovely in Linen Chocolate Treat

Hi Everyone,

I've been making sweet treats today which are great for Teacher gifts or little thank you gifts for co-workers and neighbours and friends. I've used the Lovely in Linen dsp and the Charming Sentiments stamp set and matching dies. I've used some retired ribbon because I don't really have any current ribbon that would match, but you can use any ribbon that you have. This project is also really good for using up scraps. I've CASEd this project from my Team Mate Jill Chapman (Paper Daisy Crafting). Let me show you how I made mine.

Materials

1 piece of card stock 5" x 4", scrap for the sentiment

2 pieces of dsp 2" x 3 3/4"

Ribbon long enough to wrap around and tie in a bow

Night of Navy ink

Charming Sentiments stamp set

Sentiment Silhouette dies

Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine

Multipurpose adhesive

Dimensionals

Tear and Tape

Take Your Pick Tool

Trimmer

Bone Folder

Instructions

On the long side, score at 2 1/4" and 2 3/4" and fold and burnish to make a book.

Add a piece of tear and tape to both of the panels on the outside at the 2" mark so that you can attach the ribbon. Lay the ribbon over the tear and tape and press down to secure.

Flip over and add tear and tape to the inside back to adhere the chocolate bar to keep it in place.

Adhere the dsp mats to the front and back panels over the ribbon. Tie the ribbon in a bow.

Stamp a sentiment on a scrap and then die cut with the matching die, add to the front with a dimensional.

These are really easy to batch make. I have used a Twirl chocolate bar from a multipack so you will need to change the measurements if you use any other bar. To do this just measure the length, width and depth of the bar and cut a piece that will fold around the bar and cover it completely.
