For You Ghirardelli Square Treat Holder

January is one of my favorite times of the year for candy! My grocery cart is so full with bags of chocolate squares, foiled wrapped dark chocolate hearts, candy-coated chocolate pieces, and more that it would make my dentist cringe, for sure! However, it is not all for me or my husband. I make an incredible amount of treat holders for classes and to deliver to my customers, friends, team members, community members, and more.

My ultimate favorite candy for this time of year is a strawberry-filled dark chocolate square! The combination of strawberries and dark chocolate is divine! I designed this chocolate square treat holder that is perfect to give to your loved ones.

Start by cutting a 2" x 6" piece of Pool Party cardstock. With the 6" edge along the top of the Simply Scored Scoring Tool, score at 2-7/8" and at 3-1/8". Then punch each 2" end with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. Burnish the score lines. This will become the treat holder base.

Cut a 1-3/4" x 2-1/8" piece of Basic Gray cardstock. Adhere it to the front rectangle of the treat holder base.

Cut a 1-5/8" x 2" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Stamp the large floral image with Basic Gray Archival ink on top of the Whisper White cardstock rectangle, covering as much of the cardstock as possible. Allow to dry for a few moments. Then color in using Powder Pink, Fresh Fig, Berry Burst, and Lemon Lime Twist Stampin' Write Markers.

Then adhere it on top of the Basic Gray cardstock.

Stamp the "for you" greeting image from Bloom' Birthday on a 2" x 1-1/2" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Die cut with the small heart die (cut out will measure about 1-3/8" x 1-1/4") from the Sweet and Sassy Framelit collection.

Add a dimensional to the back of the heart die cut and adhere to the front lower left corner of the treat holder base.

Place a Ghirardelli or other chocolate square in the middle of the treat holder base. Adhere chocolate square with a glue dot.

With an 8" piece of Powder Pink 3/8" Shimmer Ribbon, tie a Lark's Head Knot through the top of the treat holder base. Start by folding the ribbon in half. With the treat holder base facing you, thread the fold of the ribbon through the hole. Pull the ribbon halfway through the hole . Then push the ribbon tails through the loop made by the folded ribbon and pull to tighten. Trim ribbon tails as desired.

Your treat holder is ready for giving! Who would you give this sweet strawberry treat to?

Thanks for stopping by!
