A sour cream container= Monster Valentine!

Do you need a quick & cute little treat holder?  Make one of these sour cream containers!  Be sure you keep reading to the end of this post, as I have a tutorial- including step-by-step instructions & photos, so you can make it!

This Monster just makes me smile!!!  This is the Monster that Brody choose for his Valentine treat.  Check out the tag.....isn't it just stinkin' cute!!

This Monster too, is from the 'Boo to You' Halloween stamp set in the 2019 Holiday Catalog.  I used this same stamp set yesterday on my post, for Drakes Monster Valentine!

Brody's Valentines have Ring Pops inside of the little sour cream container we made!  

I used several retired products for this Monster treat.  BUT HERE are the CURRENT Stampin' Up! products- Lovely Lipstick card stock, Memento Pad, Dark Real Red Stampin' Blend, Light Night of Navy Stampin' Blend, Light & Dark Crumb Cake Stampin' Blend, Dimensionals, Glue Dots.  

How did we make the Sour Cream container?   

• 6x6" DSP
• Add Tear & Tape along 2 sides
• Roll the DSP & make into a tube.
• Press down good, using a bone folder.
• Press shut the one end you have the Tear & Tape onto, using a bone folder.
• Twist the container so that the sides on the other end of the container are opposite from the adhered end.
• Use a hole punch & go through both layers on the open end.
• PUT YOUR RING POP or other treat into the container NOW.
• Put ribbon through the hole, slip on your tag & tie it all shut!

 NOTE:  Be sure you use a bone folder to press the edge seams down good- so that the Tear & Tape is stuck & it doesn't pop open.  

Here I used the current From My Heart Specialty DSP.  

1.  6x6" DSP- add Tear & Tape to 2 sides. 
NOTE:  This is the inside of the sour cream container I'm making.

  2.  Roll the container into a tube like this, sticking it together.

3.  Stick the end together like this.

4.  Twist the container & have the opposite edges of the other end meet.
5.  Punch a hole all the way through both layers on the end. 

6.  Use approx. 6" of ribbon, put it through thew hole & tie it.  This is to hold your sour cream container shut. 

I hope you have a great Thursday!!

Happy Stamping!
