Craft Fair Series Chocolate Nugget Treat Holders

One of my biggest sellers during Craft Fair Season are my Nugget Treats.  I make three different versions; one that is generic. One that is Thanksgiving theme, and the other Christmas theme.   The treats make great gifts for co-workers, family, friends, hair stylist, you name it.  

The card stock holder is cut 2 x 5 and scored on the long edge at 1/4" on both sides.  The chocolate is wrapped with a 1 x 3 inch piece of Designer Series Paper.  I use the Everyday Label Punch and either the 1 1/2 inch circle punch or my retired oval punch.  Bags are purchased from Amazon with an item number of X001RP994V and measure 2 x 12, which I cut down to size once packaged. Adding my grandmothers ribbon adds a special touch.  I embellish the Christmas tags with a pearl.  The stamp set I use for Christmas theme is Itty Bitty Christmas.  Thanksgiving and generic packages are embellished with fun greetings.

I always add my personal information on a label created at avery.com.  There are so many templates to select from and it's a free service the site offers. When you are mass assembling, you need to be super organized.  Here is a picture showing you how I line up the chocolate and paper.

I hope you give this a try.  You can follow along by clicking on the video link here.

Craft Fair 2019 Series: List Pad Holder with Coordinating Pen

I'm super excited to show you my new addition to my Craft Fair inventory.  I created these super cute list pad holders, which has a holder for a pen so you are able to keep everything together.  What's even better is that the holder is re-usable!
I used up a lot of retired card stock and Designer Series Paper, so that's great as well.  
For my focal point, I like to use positive sentiments. Customers seem to really enjoy the stamping that I include.
If you would like to follow along, click here to head over to my YouTube channel to learn how to create these as well.  Make sure you subscribe to my channel and click the notification button so you can see future videos as well.

Here are the dimensions of the holder, including the score lines and Designer Series Paper dimensions as well.
Holder: Card stock holder base is 8 3/4 (height) x 8 7/16 (length). Score on the length side at 3 5/8, 4, and 4 3/8.

You will need scraps of matching card stock plus white or vanilla card stock for your embellishment.
