Pixy Stick Holder

Yes, I thought it was spelled "Pixie", but that's not what it says on the package! This is another cute little 4th of July project using my new stamp set, Independence Day.

Directions:

  1. Cut one 4 1/2 x 5 3/4" sheet of Whisper White cardstock.

  2. Score along the 5 3/4" side at 2" and 4".

  3. Stamp as you like.

  4. Use Sticky Strip or Tombow Multi to adhere the sides together to make your pocket. Be sure to apply adhesive along the bottom edge.

  5. Use your crimper to crimp the bottom of your pocket (about 1-1 1/2"). You don't see the crimping on my example because I can't seem to find it!

  6. Use Itty Bitty Backgrounds and a white craft pad to make polka dots on some Real Red and Brilliant Blue scraps.

  7. Punch out two stars per Pixy Stick using the Small Star Punch.

  8. Attach stars to front and back of Pixy Stick with Mini Glue Dots.

  9. Cut a 10 1/2" piece of Real Red Striped Grosgrain Ribbon and tie around the holder.

  10. Make a tag using the circle stamp from the set and the 1 1/4 and 1 3/8" Circle Punches.

  11. Attach tag to ribbon using a 5 1/2" piece of Linen Thread.
