This week I have decided to feature different types of treat containers, and today's project is no different. I have been wanting to create a treat pocket for Apple Cider or Hot Chocolate for awhile now and I finally did it! These would be so fun on a place setting for Thanksgiving. If you don't want to staples to show, you could make the DSP layer larger and cover them up. If you need supplies to create this project, you can click here to shop. 

I used the Basic Border Dies, but they were a bit too long. I marked where I wanted to cut, I cut to the mark, and then placed the die underneath the left side, so that it would only cut the right. 

I layered a lighter color cardstock on the inside (Mango Melody) to create a little more variety. I attached a DSP layer to the front using the same die I used for the flap. 

I thought it looked too plain so I decided to stamp leaves on the Mango Melody piece. I decided to use only 1 color because I still wanted the DSP to be more eye catching than the background.

I cut a Pumpkin Pie label in half and layered it behind the Mango Melody piece. This creates a faux shadow effect. 

If you don't want the staples to be as prominent, you could cover them or color the tops to blend in with your project. 

I added a ribbon around the entire pocket and a sentiment stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink with a leaf in the background.
