Charlene with her husband Steve and Goldendoodle Chloe live in Palm City, FL  They have two grown sons, Steve and Michael, a wonderful daughter-in-law and two adorable grandchildren. 

 

When she and her husband lived in Minnesota she learned how to stamp and has loved the craft ever since.  Charlene enjoys sharing her love of stamping by teaching classes and workshops.  Sewing, cooking, baking and being outdoors in the sunshine are other passions in her life.

These little treat holders are so quick and easy to make with the Scor-Pal.  They make delightful birthday cards and bring a smile to whoever is lucky enough to receive one.  They fit easily into a regular correspondence envelope or card envelope.

Step 1:

Align the 8 1/2" length of the cardstock printed side up on your Scor-Pal® at the 1” mark. Score at 3 1/2", 4" and again at 6 1/2" and 7".

Step 2:

Crease cardstock along the scored lines. Use your scalloped scissors to cut along the 5 1/2” side of the scored cardstock. This will be the top flap of your candy wrapper. Stamp your greeting on the bottom 1/3 of wrapper.

Step 3:

Peel paper off one magnetic snap. Place the snap on the inside of the top scalloped flap. Place the corresponding snap on top of the first snap. Peel off the paper and press firmly onto the bottom flap. This will insure an even placement.

  Step 4: Stamp greeting on the border strip. Attach eyelets using the Crop-a-Dile. 

 Attach border strip with Scor-Tape™ or tie ribbon to the front flap. Punch out

       scalloped circles, pierce the scalloped edges and glitter scallops, if desired.

       Stamp image onto the smaller of the two circles. Color image as desired, embellish

       with Micro-Fine glitter. Tape scallops together, adhere to front flap.
