More Holiday Craft Items


I made a number of different craft items for my church's holiday craft and bake sale.  I'm late in posting these because of not having time with all the crafting.  Who knew it takes so long to write down all the details!  So, I'm going to be concise, but keep it simple.  H
ere goes:

These are mini matchbook holders that hold one wrapped York Peppermint Patty.  The kind in the little individual pouch, not the individually wrapped ones that are round.  The patty in the pouch is also round, but the packaging has an edge that can be stapled.



Supplies Used:
Paper:  Foil Frenzy Card Stock and coordinating solid card stock, Crumb Cake for the snowflake,
Tools:  Stitched Shape Layering Circles (1 7/8th Circle), Seasonal Layers Thinlits and Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, stapler
Embellishments: Clear Faceted Gems, Year of Cheer Washi Tape.

Matchbook folder:  Paper cut to 2 1/2" wide by 6".  Scored at 3/4" and 3 1/2" 

Patty is stapled into the lower 3/4" flap.  The washi tape covers up the staples.
