Creating Mini Cards & Treat Holders
Hi friends! This is Mindy with you today to share inspiration using the Sweet Note die set. These are so great for so many occasions and can be decorated in lots of ways.
I have a video showing you how I created mine with the Sweet Cherries stamp set.

Since I knew that I wanted to use the Sweet Cherries stamp set, I chose colors of cardstock that would coordinate with it and die cut them from the Sweet Notes die set. I also die cut the square from those same colors of cardstock and alternated them on the front of my note sets.
I stamped the Sweet Cherries in alcohol friendly ink onto Hammermill cardstock and colored with copic markers. The colors I used are R39, R37, R35, & R32 for the cherries and G28, G24 and YG01 for the leaves. Then I used the coordinating die to cut them out.
I wanted a sentiment to be placed over the top of my cherries and found the perfect ones on the Potted Roses stamp set. I stamped the word “Sending” in Black ink and diecut out with the coordinating die. Then the smaller sentiments I heat embossed in Gold on the same colors of cardstock as my base.
I chose these Reese’s Thin Cups as my treat for the inside of the holder. These are a little bulky and the flap didn’t want to stay tucked in so when I’m ready to send these off, I will probably add tape runner or a glue dot to keep it closed.
There are so many things you can add to the inside like thin chocolats, little notes, maybe some suckers if you poke a hole in one end of the note and even a money holder. I actually used one of these right away to tuck some money in and give to my daughter for Prom dress shopping. She loved it!
Hope you enjoyed today’s inspiration!
