Pinspired - Inspiration from our Pinterest Board hosted by Toni

Hey there, crafty friends!  It's come around again to my turn to host a "Pinspired" post.  I hope you find this one fun and easy when you need a little bit of cute packaging.  Of course, it fits in with this month's More Than One Score challenge as the theme is Anything Goes.  There's a Design Team call this month too.  This is your chance to shine, if you have ever entertained the idea of joining a design team.

Without any further chatter, here is my Folded Tea Holder. I've also seen it called a Double Pocket Treat Holder.  When I saw these projects on Pinterest, I knew that I could put my Scor-Envi to use.
For this project, you will need:
  • Scor-Pal
  • Scor-Envi
  • One piece of 6" x 6" double-sided designer paper
  • Hole punch
  • 7" length of ribbon
  • Stamps
  • Ink
  • Card stock scraps for embellishment
  • Dimensional adhesive
Insert Scor-Envi into Scor-Pal.  Place 6" by 6" piece of designer paper into Scor-Pal with the top at  the 6" score-line with its right edge against the Scor-Envi. Be sure to line up the bottom with the 6" score line as well.  Score at 6".
Flip the designer paper over and line up top and bottom with 6" mark.  Again the right edge will be aligned with the Scor-Envi.  Score at 5 1/2" and at 6 1/2".
Flip the designer paper over and rotate 90 degrees.  Line up the top and bottom of the designer paper with the 6" mark.  The right edge will be aligned with the Scor-Envi.  Score at 4 1/2" and at 7 1/2".
Burnish all of your score lines.
Fold in the sides scored at 4 1/2" and 7 1/2".
Fold the top half down, covering up the sides.  This fold happens on the 6" score line.
Fold the front and back half up on the 5 1/2" and 6 1/2" score lines.  This creates a pocket on both sides and exposes the other pattern on the designer paper.
Punch a hole in the top, through both sides and secure with a ribbon. Embellish as desired.
Fill the front and back pockets with any treat.  Pictures here are single tea bags.  Ghiradelli Chocolate or other square chocolates would also work well for this treat holder.

I hope you try your hand at this fun little project.  Thanks for stopping by.

Details - Stamps: Lucky You (Verve), Teeny Tiny Words (SU); Paper: White, Bashful Blue, SU double-sided designer paper; Ink: London Fog, Tuxedo Black; Accessories: Scor-Pal, Scor-Envi, hold punch, Spellbinder Oval Nestabilities, Square punch, Copic Markers, grosgrain ribbon, stampin' dimensionals.

Mid Month Tutorial hosted by Patti

Hi there, crafty friends!

I'm here today with a photo tutorial for these crazy fun, super tiny little gift bags.
When finished, they stand 1 7/8" tall, and are 1.25" square, and hold 2 Hugs or Kisses.
I cannot take credit for the design, but I'm sorry to say that I don't recall whose design it was!


Here are the supplies you will need:

Scor-Pal (I used Scor-Pal Eighths), Scor-Tape, (I used 3/8" tape) Scissors, Hole Punch, Twine


and...patterned paper.
You can use cardstock, but these bags are so tiny that paper actually works best.
                      

Cut your paper to 5.5" x 3"
Score the long side at: 1.25", 2.5", 3.75", and 5"
Score the short side at: 1"

Remove the small section at the bottom, and trim your tab at a bit of an angle.

Cut on each of your fold lines, cutting only up to the 1" fold line.
Mitre the back and two side tabs in a bit, but leave the tab on the front as is.

Add your Scor-Tape to your little flap, and create your box!

Ta-Da!

 Here's what your box looks like. Now you can see the three angled tabs better.

Add Scor-Tape to your 'front' box flap.

Fold in the three angled tabs, and secure them with the 'front' tab.

Add two Hershey's Hugs or Kisses (or another tiny candy)

After your goodies are inside, gently pinch in your two sides.

Holding tightly, punch two holes for your ribbon or twine.


Add twine and/or decorate as desired!


 Here are the finished bags - perfect for carrying in your purse to give friends, postal workers, etc.


 Easter and/or spring...

For your Valentine...

St. Patrick's Day...

The possibilities are endless!
Give them a try, and have fun!!!

Thanks for stopping by,
Patti J.

Welcome to the 56th Monthly Challenge here at Scor-Pal!
We love showing our projects to you and now it's your chance to show your creations to us!
This month is really easy, we want to see "Anything Goes!"
Each month we will have a different theme and you will have a month to create and enter your projects. As well as the theme you will need to make "More Than One Score" and tell us where you used the Scor-Pal on your project. So a single fold card won't count but an Easel, Gatefold, Stair Step, etc will :) Also we love to see your "Anything But a Card" projects, just as long as you make "More Than One Score"
We have a ton of inspiration on our Projects on the Scor-Pal website and also on our Pinterest Board to get you eager to enter.

We are looking to add to our team and if you love Scor-Pal then this is your chance to join us.
We create a new challenge every month along with a Pinterest inspired tutorial
Hosting duties are spread evenly between the design team members throughout the year.
