Jaded Blossom Candy Slider

Hi Everybody!
It's happily my turn to share another Jaded Blossom project with you!  I made this candy slider card for a birthday treat, but it would work awsome for any occassion.  Here's how it turned out:

You'll need:

*Jaded Blossom = Miscellaneous Fun. and Flag Dies

*Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge

*sea green cardstock

*Echo Park patterned paper

*Stampin' Up! solid cardstock

 *ribbon

*Before scoring, lay your candy down to see where you will need to fold it.

*You will need to leave about 1/8" on both sides of the candy to allow it to be able to slide in and out.

*Before you adhere it closed, add your mat on the front, and do any stamping and embellishing at this point.  It's much easier to do it while it's completely flat!

*For mine, I added the cupcake, banner and bling.

  

*I took my flag die cuts using the Flag Dies, and folded them 2 times on each side so that the flag popped up in the middle.

 

*I also stamped above and below the patterned paper mat.

*Once you're ready to close it, remember to allow a little bit of overlap to make it easier to adhere.

*Punch a hole at the top, and thread your ribbon through both sides.

*Put your candy on top of the ribbon, and push the candy down into the slider.

*Tie your ribbon closed at the top.

*Adhere the solid cardstock piece to the back, and embellish.  This is where you can write a message :)

*Here's the final project!



*Here's how it looks sliding out.

This was super simple to make!  And it would be great for all ages.  I hope you liked it! I'd love to see some of you make this and share it on the Jaded Blossom Facebook page HERE, or on my Facebook page HERE.
