Hmmm, nothing like a candy bar. A highly decorated candy bar holder, even better!
How is this for Fun. Easy to decorate a Candy Bar of your choice. The bar fits nice and snug. I decided that you should have a picture tutorial for this candy bar holder:
Measurements are:
10 1/4" X 2 3/4" Length
Then score it using our Brand New Simply Scored Tool from the Holiday Mini. I love it.
Simply Scored scoring tool #122334 $29.95-What a Great Gift-To YOU!
Score at 5" and 5 1/4". Then flip and score lengthwise on both sides 1/4".
Then cut those little tabs.
Use your Bone Folder (#102300 $6.95) to smooth back creases.
Snail it! (#104332 $6.95 and refill #104331 $4.50)
Now put it together. Behold…the Box!
Now you want to decorate your box.
I used Basic Black C.S. and Frightful Sight DSP.
Measurements for these are :
4 7/8" X 2 1/8" for the Black C.S.
2" X 4 3/4" for the DSP
Then I used the Big Shot for the die cuts. I used Whisper White and Basic Black C.S.
Then I used Cajun Craze and Lucky Limeade markers to decorate the Candy stamp. TIP ALERT: Don't forget to use your markers. They really are a great tool and you can get so much more out of your stamps. Another reason – I give a pack of markers to my downline when she or he has reached the $1,000 in sales mark within their first 6 months.
Just cut out using the Postage stamp punch.
Next put the two Circle Die Cuts together with snail and added a Ghost. A touch of Lucky Limeade under the ghost adds a bit of shadow, slime, glow, you decide.
Now piece everything together with dimensionals to add a bit of lift. A real 3-D Candy Bar.
Here are the measurements again:
10 1/4" X 2 3/4"
Fold/score/crease 5" and 5 1/4" and then turn and score 1/4" on both long sides.
The outside papers:
4 7/8" X 2 1/8"
2" X 4 3/4"

Really, Really Cute!!
Love the Ghosts. I like using my two-step owl punch to make ghosts too. Sooo easy to snip the feet, flip him over and add eyes!
