Easter Treat Video Tutorial
Today's Easter project is a mini treat holder. It has a little chocolate bilby inside!
For our international visitors, the bilby is an endangered Australian marsupial. Some people say that the Easter Bilby brings chocolate eggs to Aussie kids, instead of the Easter bunny! lol
I added this fun little project to my March workshops, and it's been really popular. Would you like to have a go?
I made my first attempt at a YouTube video. It's only 1 1/2 minutes long but will give you a 'visual' on how to make the closing device! Oh, and you might want to click on it to view the enlarged picture because I made the text a bit too small! As I said, it's my first one so I'd love some feedback (be gentle!) and don't forget to leave me some comment love.
1. Cut cardstock 20cm x 7.5cm (you can get 4 from an A4 sheet, with one of them being a teeny bit narrower than the others).
2. Score at 6cm, 7cm, 13cm, 14cm. Burnish the score lines.
3. Grab your Curly Label punch and just slip one corner of the front flap into the punch, then squeeze! Do the same for the opposite side.
4. Now, grab your Word Window punch and push the bottom flap in as far as it'll go. then Punch!
5. You have now created a closure.
6. Decorate the front as desired, and don't forget to attach your chocolate treat I used Mini Glue Dots (gotta love those things!).
I've made a few of these little yummy treats… would you like one? Anyone who puts in an order via email before 12noon on Wednesday 31st March will get a complimentary Easter Bilby treat in the mail next week! These are the final days of the Summer Mini and Sale-a-bration catalogues so don't delay.
Happy stamping,
