How to make a Ladybird treat holder

I have been busy making these cute ladybird chocolate gift holders

for my May customers. Are they not adorable!!

They are quick and easy to make and, I think, they would be well received by anyone.

I have used the gorgeous TUTTI FRUTTI 6 x 6'' paper pack

You get two per sheet.

It has two score lines and two punch holes to make it.

I also used the 1 1/2" circle punch and 1 3/8" scallop punch

along with a Thank You stamp from a brand new hostess stamp set coming in June!

I used Real Red card from the Brights collection, Dimensionals

and Real Red Ink pad.

I have a You Tube tutorial to show how to make it 

I would love you to give me a thumbs up and subscribe if you like it.

The measurements needed:

paper - 6" x 3"

Score lines - 1/2" and 3 1/4"

You will need a hole punch and some matching ribbon

and of course some chocolate treats!
