Chocolate Heart Happiness Treat Bag

I wanted to showcase some of the foil wrapped chocolate hearts instead of covering them up, so I created this simple treat bag tag topper.

The tag topper is made by cutting a 3-1/2" by 2-1/2" piece of Real Red cardstock. I scored it in half with the 3-1/2" edge along the top of the Simply Scored Scoring Tool at 1-3/4".

I burnished the score line and added Tear & Tape along the top and bottom edges of the tag topper.

Next I cut a 1-1/2" by 2-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock, stamped the lined heart image from Heart Happiness with Real Red ink in the center of the cardstock, and stamped Happy Valentine's Day from Teeny Tiny Wishes with Basic Black Archival ink in the center of the heart. Then I adhered the Whisper White cardstock to the front of the Real Red cardstock.

I placed four foil wrapped chocolate hearts into a 2" by 8" cellophane bag, folded over the top, and stapled the bag closed.

I removed the Tear & Tape backing from the tag topper and sandwiched it over the top of the cellophane bag to hide the staples. I pressed firmly along the Tear & Tape to make secure the tag was firmly secured to the cellophane bag.

Your Valentine treat holder bag is ready for gifting!

You can change this design to incorporate your favorite colors or change it to another holiday or occasion. You could definitely jazz this tag topper up with some rhinestones, enamel shapes, or even some glitter! Some glitter paper would be fabulous here too!

St. Patrick's Day Treat Bag


Here is a simple and adorable St. Patrick's Day Treat Bag to make and share! I made a bunch in no time! I started by filling a 4" x 6" Cellophane Bag with gold foil wrapped caramel candy, rainbow candy, and mini marshmallows. The caramel candy represents the pot of gold. The rainbow candy stands for the rainbow pointing to the point of the gold. Lastly, the mini marshmallows are the clouds that the rainbows come from.

I folded over the top of the bag and stapled it closed. The handheld stapler made this so much easier than a regular stapler! I didn't worry about spilling the contents or having a long enough stapler arm to fit.

I used a word processing program to make the treat topper tag. Creating the tag was really quick and is not as difficult as it sounds. I think choosing the font took the longest!
  1. Start with a new document. Insert a text box that is 4" high and 5" inches wide. Keep the single line border around the text box, so it will be easier to trim to size later.
  2. Create a second text box that is 2" high and 5" wide. Inside this text box type your phrase. I typed "You are the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!" Remove the single line border around the smaller text box.
  3. This step is optional. Highlight one letter at a time in word rainbow and change it to rainbow colors. In the word processing program I used, I highlighted each letter and inserted the RGB color code for Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Tempting Turquoise, Pacific Point, and Rich Razzleberry, respectively, in the font menu color selector.

  5. Move the smaller text box to the bottom half of the larger text box, so that the two text boxes overlap. I made two text boxes because I didn't want the words to be upside when I folded the tag in half.
  6. Then I printed the treat topper tag on Whisper White cardstock, trimmed the excess, folded it in half, and stapled it onto the top of the cellophane bag.
  7. Finally, I punched the extra gold sticker paper from February 2016's Paper Pumpkin kit with the 1/4" and 1/2" circle punches. I adhered them to the tag to look like gold coins.
I hope your family and friends like these treat bags as much as mine!
