2-in-1 Thanksgiving Pumpkin Treat Holder and Placecard

Is it a treat holder or a place card? Why not be both!? Delight your Thanksgiving guests with this a pumpkin chocolate kiss triangle treat holder!

This style of treat holder is so easy, quick to make, and can be customizable to the materials that you have on hand.

The base is a piece of cardstock bent into the shape of a triangle. Then a die cut or punched shape is adhered to 2 sides of the triangle and then adhered together. Lastly, a chocolate kiss is placed in the center of the triangle.

You may be familiar with this treat holder style with my plethora of cat punch treat holders for Valentine's Day and Halloween. Now that the cat punch is retired, I had to brainstorm other punches and dies that I could make the triangle treat holder with.

Don't worry. I didn't sell my cat punch after it retired. The cat punch is one punch that I plan on keeping for a long time regardless of its current or retired status. So, you may see some projects in the future with the cat punch.

With Thanksgiving coming soon, the pumpkin stamp and die from the #159634 Hello Harvest stamp set and the #159643 Rustic Pumpkin Dies was a great place to start!

Once I made the treat holders, I added a name tag across the front of the pumpkin to add the name of a guest. I wrote the names for these samples with my computer. However, I recommend a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker or a Basic Black Stampin' Blend to write the name of your guest before you attach the name tag to the pumpkin.

These treat holder place cards are versatile. Use them during the dinner or after. The place cards can be put at each guest's place setting or on a side table for guests to pick up when they arrive or for when they leave.

Cat and Dog Punch Noel Christmas Treat Holders

They're back! These Cat and Dog Builder Punches are another variation of the ones I made for Valentine's Day. I couldn't resist the cuteness of the Cat Punch and the Dog Builder Punch for Christmas! The Wrapped in Plaid Specialty Designer Series Paper makes an elegant, traditional feel to these chocolate kiss treat holders!

I used five of the plaid patterned paper to create these sweet Dog Builder Punch treat holders. I was able to punch 9 dogs out of one 6" x 6" sheet of the designer series paper. I didn't cut the designer series paper before I started. I punched 3 dogs in a row along one edge of the paper, then rotated the paper 90 degrees and punched more dogs along that edge, and repeated until all 4 sides of the paper had been punched. I was very frugal with the amount of space between punches. There was enough paper in the center to punch out one more dog at an angle and with some wiggling of the punch.

Each treat holder can fit 1 chocolate kiss. I used the Christmas tree lights foiled wrapped chocolate kisses, but you can choose which design you would like. There are so many fantastic designs and flavors to choose from!

Here is a closeup of one of the dog treat holders. He is decorated with a greeting banner punched from the Classic Label Punch and the gold metallic pearls. I love these metallic pearls! I love them so much I used all of them up for this project and have added them to my next order! To embellish the rest of the treat holders, I dug into my secret retired product stash and used the Metallic Enamel Shapes. I love these enamel shapes so much, that I bought five additional packs before they retired. Metallics bring a warmth and shine to everything!

The cats turned out just as adorable! I varied the ink colors to each of the plaids, so that they coordinated and wasn't too overwhelmingly green or red on any one pattern.

The blue, green, red, and gold plaid is my favorite! I ended up making 63 cat and dog treat holders because that was how many chocolate kisses there were in one bag after I ate 4. They are delicious!

These chocolate kiss treat holders will be packaged into two boxes and delivered to my community members later this week. I love making and delivering treats to my loved ones and community members. It is a small way to show appreciation for them!

The Wrapped in Plaid Specialty Designer Series Paper also has a green plaid pattern that would be amazing for St. Patrick's Day! You could add the "Have a lucky day" stamp from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set as an embellishment. How fun would that be?!

I hope you give these cuties a try! I would love to see how you decorate your cat and dog punch treat holders! Post a photo on my Facebook page today!

You can find the measurements and a supply list for this project at the end of the post. I hope you enjoyed this project! Please leave a comment below (click on the pencil icon)! I would love to hear from you!
