This year my holiday Chex Mix carrier featured a cute snowman from
My Scrap Chick. I used "Frosty the Snowman Candy Bar Wrap" file, enlarging it to fit onto the front of my carrier. I swapped the snowflake in the file with one I die cut from glitter cardstock using "Let it Snowflake" die from MFT Die-namics.
The carrier design is a simply a shallow box made to fit the bottom of my bag of Chex mix with two panels as tall glued on to the front and back. Holes are punched at the top to thread a ribbon through so a bow can be tied to keep the carrier closed.
For smaller bags of Chex Mix made for hubby to share with golf club friends, I simply printed up labels with an image of a golfing snowman.
I made several of these Hershey Kisses candy gift card holders which I had been wanting to make for the longest time. I followed the video tutorial by
Kelly Acheson on her blog
A Stamp Above to create a cutting file for my template.
The back panel of this candy holder serves as the pocket where you can slide a gift card. Had fun decorating the boxes with a polar bear die cut using Marianne Designs "Eline's Arctic Bear" dies and Merry Christmas greeting cut using an Elizabeth Craft Designs word die. I thought this was a cute and easy way to make giving gift cards not seem so boring.
