Favors: Just a little Thanks

Hello Everyone! I wanted to try something different by using pictures to show the step by step procedures for crafts ideas. For tonight, we will be making a favor. I got this idea from a craft class that I was attending. I just used different colors and designer paper. You too can use your own favorite colors and designer papers. This favor can be use for any party, Halloween favors, Christmas, Valentine, Birthday and many more. I hope you all like it. Let me know if you all like the idea of using pictures for procedures.





1) Size: 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" for the base. Score 1" on all sides and fold. Trim a part of it. Use double-sided sticky tape on the four small corner squares. See pictures below:



2.) Size of the designer paper: 11" x 4". Put sticky tape on the bottom and left side of the designer paper that your are not using (the back side). Adhere this on the base.

3.) Using a scallop edge punch, trim an edge of a 12" paper. Cut 3/4" size of this paper. Adhere this around on the bottom part of the favor.

4.) For the holder, you can use a small tab punch. If you don't have one, you can always copy the shape and cut it yourself. Fold it in half and adhere this on top of the favor.

5.) Use a stamp sentiment of your choice. Stamp it on a circle punch. Adhere this using a dimensional (also called sticky foam) on a scallop shape paper. Then stick this on the middle of the favor. You can always use your own idea on how to decorate the middle part of your favor depending on the occasion you're using it for.


6.) To hold the tab together, I used an eyelet. Tied it together using a ribbon.

Here's the finish product. You can put anything inside (chocolate, candy, cookies, etc.) Use your creative ideas on how to design this favor and when to use it. Enjoy!
