WEDNESDAY

TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS - DAY 7

Today' project is another simple little Ghirardelli chocolate holder made like a matchbook.

Start with a piece of card stock cut at 2 1/8 x 5 1/2.  I could have made it a tad longer, but wanted to get the most out of my cardstock so I used 5 1/2.  

Using your Simply Scored, score at 5/8, 3 1/8, 3 3/8.

Fold and crease on score lines.

Cut a piece of DSP at 2 x 1 7/8 and glue to the front of the matchbook.

Lay the end flap of your Ghirardelli square JUST over the 5/8" score line.  I actually put a little Fast Fuse on the flap so it wouldn't move.

Bring your 5/8" flap up and staple through the layers to hold your chocolate square inside.

Tuck your top flap in under the bottom flap to create the matchbook look.

Stamp a Christmas message, punch out with the Classic Label Punch and attach to the flap to cover the staples.  I also attached one of the retired bows as an embellishment.  Now you have the project pictured at the top of the page.  

Come back on Friday.  I promise not to have another Ghirardelli chocolate holder.

Today begins the End of the Year Sale.

On December 5, the Year-End Closeout will officially begin! During this promotion, you will be able to save on a selection of retiring and surplus items—while supplies last.  Place your orders sooner rather than later, because supplies are limited and the Year-End Closeout ends on January 2. After that, some of your favorite retiring items may be gone for good!
