If you need a cute and easy little Easter treat, try this Easter Candy Chick Treat Holder. You just need one strip of paper and a 3D piece of Easter candy that you can display inside. You can change the measurements to fit any size of candy. If you have a larger chocolate bunny you could make this a little wider and taller. You just can’t use the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch on paper cut wider than 2″. There are several variations can do with this project.
My sample starts with a strip of cardstock measuring 8 1/2″ x 2″. I used Flirty Flamingo just for something different. Stick each end into the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. If your paper is wider, then just leave the top as is, or round the corners, or simply punch a hole for the ribbon. Whatever you would like to do!
Using each scalloped end of the cardstock, put that end on the 3 3/4″ mark on the Stampin’ Trimmer and score. Turn it to the other end, line up the end of the scallop and score at 3 3/4″. Crease both score lines. Then using an Oval die or Oval Punch or another shape, cut out a hole so that you can see the candy later. If you want, put a hole on each side if you want a total see-through. I decided to add a piece of Whisper White 3″ x 1 7/8″, sponged with Pool Party ink and stamped some grass at the bottom. The grass was really a waste since you can’t see it anyway! But I kind of like the light blue background.
Adhere the candy chick, bunny, lamb, whatever you have to the bottom, in between the two score lines. I used just a short line of Snail Adhesive or you could use Mini Glue Dots. Just make sure any glue is not touching the candy!
The little greeting is stamped in Flirty Flamingo Ink from the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set (a must have!). I punched it out with the Classic Label Punch and just trimmed off the banner ends since it was a little too long. Then I added a few little sequins but I’m not sure they look quite right. But I am going to leave them! I tied it closed with the Silver 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon.
I think this Easter Candy Chick Treat Holder is pretty cute, especially the chocolate chick! And it’s very easy, especially if you just copy mine and don’t have to think about how to make it! Have fun stamping!
