Earlier this month when I held my Stamp & Chat classes, I always try to give a favor to my customers as a way to show how much I appreciate them and to encourage them try making 3D items. The theme for the classes were a combination of Christmas in July, Peaches and Strawberries, plus we played Bingo for prizes!
This favor holder is designed for the Bath & Body Works Mini Sanitizers and is my original design.
One sheet of Balmy Blue cardstock will make 4 holders.
Cut Strip - 2-1/8" x 11"
Score at 3", 6", 7-1/2". 8-1/2", and 10" on the long side. Fold the score lines gently, it doesn't need a bone folder.
You're a Peach Designer Series Paper (DSP):
For the back piece - 2" x 2-7/8"
Small front piece - 7/8" x 2"
For Tag on Front
1" circle punch for scraps of Basic White cardstock
1-1/4" circle punch for scraps of Calypso Coral or Petal Pink cardstock
Just for You stamp from Sweet Strawberry Stamp set
Balmy Blue Ink
Retired Layering Ovals Dies
Die Cutting Machine of Choice
This photo shows you the size oval you need.
After the DSP is adhered, you will need to take your paper snips and fussy cut around the back side of the oval, as the sanitizer bottles are just a little wider than the oval die selected. Start with only trimming 1/16" and gently try the bottle in the oval. You want the bottle to be hugged inside the oval, not sit loosely.
Flip holder strip over and add Stampin Seal adhesive so back of holder will be double thickness.
Fold on score line and press well to adhesive.
I was using up some wider double stick tape I had on hand, but two pieces of Stampin' Up!s Tear and Tape would work nicely. Position as shown in photo.
If you want a cleaner edge on your Tear and Tape, use a credit card to tear the tape against.
Peel off Tear and Tape
Notice how the 1" DSP covered section on the front and the 1" section on the end of the cardstock goes nicely against the back section to create a level surface where the sanitizer will go.
Going with my peach theme, the ladies received Peach Mango hand sanitizer.
Punch out the needed circles and stamp the greeting. Adhere layers together and adhere directly to the front of the holder as shown.
These little holders will fit nicely in a Stampin' Up! Clear Envelope with the flap folded down a bit more.
Ta-Da! 10 holders as favors for my customers.
Here's a close up of the design of the DSP sheet I used.
I hope you'll give this Mini Hand Sanitizer Holder a try. It's a perfect little gift for any time of year. It's also a great way to use up little scraps of Designer Series Paper you may have in your collection.
Happy Creating!
