Christmas Doodad

Since I have the Envelope Punch Board, I wanted to use it to make my holiday doodad.  I wanted to use a Hershey bar as the treat and knew I wanted to put it into some sort of envelope pocket and this is what I came up with.

This used a 6"x6" piece of pattern paper, lined up at 2-1/8", punched and scored.  I also scored it at 2-3/8" so when I folded the paper it would have a side to it.  I flipped the paper over and repeated the above scoring and punching steps.  For the bottom of the envelope, I scored it at 3-3/4" and 4" so it would create a bottom.  The envelope is held together with scor-tape.

The candy bar is wrapped in a piece of 5.5" x 6" paper.  I wrapped a piece of fun fur around the top with a bell tied onto it.  I made many different styles and here's a sampling of some of them.
