Sweet Little Kitty Treat Holder

Good morning!  Can't believe it's been so long since I've posted a project!!!  Today's is short and sweet -- this wonderful little kitty treat holder.


I've made a ton of these to give away to people who have attended my classes in February and March!!!  So quick and easy to make!  Thanks to all of the crafty people who posted this and similar projects on Pinterest and You Tube!!!

Instructions are below, but I also found one You Tube video that presents a very easy-to-follow way to assemble these treat holders in case you're better with visuals.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziilpUIoZx8.  NOTE:  This woman uses Fast Fuse for some of the assembly, but since Stampin' Up! no longer offers that product, I've used Glue Dots instead.

Materials

Paper
* Painted with Love Specialty Designer Paper (about 3" x 3") (2018 Occasions catalog)
* Rich Razzleberry Card Stock (about 3" x 3"; 2-1/2" x 3/4")

Accessories and Tools
* Cat Punch (2017 Holiday catalog -- carried over and still available)
* Love Mini Tinsel Trim Combo Pack (2018 Occasions Catalog)
* Scoring Board
* Adhesives:  Glue Dots

Miscellaneous
* Hershey's Kiss

Instructions

1. Punch one cat shape from DSP and one from card stock.

2. Score 2-1/2" x 3/4" card stock at 3/4" from each short end.


3. Fold ends away from score lines to create a "U" shape.


4. Attach Glue Dots to OUTSIDE of  one side of "U" shape and adhere to back of one cat shape; attach Glue Dots to OUTSIDE of opposite side of "U" shape and adhere to back of second cat shape, being careful to line up cats so the shapes match.  Attach glue dots to INSIDE bottom of "U" shape and attach a kiss.

5. Use one or two glue dots at top of shape to attach heads to each other (see side view below).


6.  Make a small bow from Mini Tinsel and adhere to front of cat with a Glue Dot.

This project is so easy, you can assemble an entire litter of kitties within just a few minutes!  Enjoy!
