Hey Turkey Check This Out!
Wouldn't this look adorable on your holiday table--a take-home treat & add the guest's name with a tag to the bow-- a gift + place holder.
This cutie is quite easy to assemble--the base is the Tiny Treat boxes requiring no adhesive--simply fold together. We added designer paper to the 'body' & used our new leaf dies for the tail feathers... presto--the cutest turkey ever!
I know it's early to talk about Thanksgiving...but I wanted to give you enough time to order your supplies & create these favors before the holiday gets too near.
Not hosting the holiday at your home? Make enough for the guests who will be attending the party at someone else's home & take these as a gift/treat for the hostess---she will swoon at your thoughtfulness & receiving a "gift" that is wonderfully ready for 're-gifting.'
These are also great for your co-workers, teachers, small groups, coaches--who wouldn't enjoy receiving one of these cuties filled with their favorite chocolate!
I'll give you the step by step directions followed by the Supply list. Order your supplies today so you can get your turkeys completed before the holiday approaches. Remember, if you place your order online and use this month's host code (CWJCVXS7) you'll receive $5 in Stampin'Up! product from me for each $50 in product that you order.
