Birthday Double Pocket Treat Holder
Follow the instructions on the template to create a double pocket treat holder from bright red cardstock. Use the triangle pattern on the template to cover the inner flap of pocket #1 with Hopscotch orange grid paper. Cover the inner flap of pocket #2 with Hopscotch light blue dot. Cover outer flap of pocket #1 with Hopscotch stripe paper, and cover the outer flap of pocket #2 with Hopscotch yellow plaid paper. Apply White Jewel Border Dazzles™ along the diagonal edges of the triangles as shown. (Tip: you don't have to apply them to parts of the pocket flaps that remain hidden.) Place heart, star, and swirl Dazzles™ from the Big Greetings Dazzles™ to pocket #1 and pocket #2 as shown.
Punch a hole at the top of the treat holder. Fold about 6" of blue satin ribbon in half. Thread the folded part through the punched hole and pull through (try to poke a small corner of the fold through the hole, then pull the rest through), making about a 1" loop. Take the ends of the ribbon and thread through the loop, pulling tight. Trim ends in a “V” shape.
Pocket & Tag #1: Wrap green grosgrain ribbon around the base of the pocket and tie in a bow in the lower right as shown. Zot™ ribbon in place. For the tag, use the template to cut the tag shape from Hopscotch circles paper. Mat the tag on goldenrod yellow cardstock. Place the small hearts from the "Sending you a great big hug" Dazzles™ on Hopscotch red doodle paper and cut close around the Dazzles™ heart edges. Place the backed Dazzles™ greeting onto light blue dot paper and trim around with a 1/16" border. Mat again on red doodle paper with a 1/16" border. Glue to the center of the tag, 1" from the top. Place 3 small Dazzles™ hearts above the greeting as shown. Punch a hole in the top of the tag. Cut 4 1/2" of yellow dot sheer ribbon and fold in half. Create the same knot as on the top of the treat holder (see step 2). Trim ends in a “V” shape and insert tag into pocket #1.
Pocket & Tag #2: Wrap orange grid ribbon around the base of the pocket and tie in a bow in the lower left as shown. Zot™ the bow in place. For the tag, use the template to cut the tag shape from multi-dot paper. Mat the tag on goldenrod yellow cardstock. Place "Eat Lots of Cake" on orange grid paper and trim around, leaving a 1/16" border. Mat again on red doodle paper, leaving a 1/16" border. Glue to the center of the tag, about 1" from the top. Place a small Dazzles™ star above the greeting as shown. Punch a hole in the top of the tag. Cut 4 1/2" of blue stitch grosgrain ribbon and fold in half. Create the same knot as on the top of the treat holder (see step 2). Trim ends in a “V” shape and insert tag into pocket #2.
