Freebie Friday - Perfect Package

Today we'd like to share with you how to make this fun little pocket treat holder.  They are so quick, easy and very cute...  These work well for treats but they also work great on a card front or a scrapbook page to hold trinkets, journaling, etc.

 

Gather the following supplies:  one 6x6 piece of DSP and a bone folder!  That's it except for any embellishment your choose for the front.  Fold the 6x6 piece of DSP from corner to corner and crease well.

  

Next, fold each corner up and across so the tip lines up with the edge of the paper and the angle leaves a straight across the front.  Repeat for the other side.

  

Next, fold just the front layer of the top (the very top, not the two sides you just folded) down over the sides and again, crease really well. 

    
Now, holding it in the palm of one hand, put your fingers inside the pocket and push the front out a bit to open it up creating your pocket.

 

That's it!  Now embellish the front and fill with candy, a special piece of jewelery, money, trinkets, etc.

 

Supplies used for our example are:

• Specialty DSP - Love Impressions
• stamp set -  I {heart} Hearts
• Ink - Basic Gray
• Embosslits die - SU! exclusive Scalloped Heart of Hearts

 
Be sure to stop by next Friday for the next freebie!
