Here I go again, another little purse treat holder! Love this little one and it holds 2 Hershey Nugget chocolates!
This little gem measures 2” across and 1.5” wide and tall (minus the handle of course). Isn’t it adorable? I used the (retired) Tag Topper Punch since it made the pretty scallop AND the hole for the brad closure all at once. Here are the measurements of each part:
DSP 2” x 6” (If your paper has a direction to it, be careful to punch so that your image is in the correct orientation to be the flap.)
Cardstock: 2”x1.5” (optional but I like the solid cardstock so that it emphasizes the print “flap”
Cardstock: 1.25x5” (this is the “wrap” for the Hershey Nuggets)
Cardstock: 1/4” x 7” (this is the handle)
Mini brad (or other closure mechanism)
Awl (to poke a hole for the brad)
I scored the DSP 2x6” DSP at 1.5”, 3”, 4.5” and 4.75”. Then I used the Tag Topper Punch on the 1.25” segment…which also took off and extra 1/4”. This left a 2x5.75” panel
I folded all the score lines then added the 2x1.5” cardstock to the front panel of the same dimensions.
Using my awl, I poked a hole through the purse “front”. To figure out where to make the hole, fold up the score lines to form the purse shape and see where the mini brad needs to be to latch the purse flap shut. Insert a mini brad in the hole and secure it.
I wrapped two Nuggets with the 1.25x5” cardstock and adhered it to the inside bottom of the purse
The handle got added into the 1/4” space.
And that’s it…you’ve just created an adorable little chocolate purse! Thanks for stopping in…have a wonderful day!
