I don't really have anyone to make little treats for. I have 11 nieces and nephews, but there aren't any holidays or birthdays coming up for the little ones and I'm pretty sure my soon-to-be 17-year-old nephew isn't exactly hoping for a little box filled with candy. So when I was schedule for What a Treat Wednesday, I was at a bit of a loss.
I finally decided to make a little gum holder to tuck away in The Hubs' bag when he leaves for his annual trip with his buddies.
A bunch of guys hanging out together for six days... not too sure about the priority of proper oral hygiene... I'm sure some gum will be a welcomed amenity.
I first wrapped the gum in white paper to cover the label. Another layer of patterned card stock and a
Mustache Die was added to the front. I used the
Tag Gift Pocket Die to slip the gum into and decorated it with the new
Stitched Trio Banner Die and
Alpha Pack (I am LOVING the Alpha Pack and honestly didn't think I would.).
Thanks for stopping by today. You can check out the
MCT blog for more fabulous treat holders from the Design Team.
I hope you were inspired.
