Valentine Sucker Holder



While searching for Valentine ideas, I came across a cute one on Leeann Greff's blog. I modified it a bit and came up with this...

What do you think? Super cute and best of all easy. Here's the directions if you would like to make some yourself.


Cut out a 4 1/2 inch square of paper. Score the square at 1 1/2 and 3 inches. Turn the paper and score again at the same measurements. Punch a hole at each corner.


Using square scallop punch, punch out four pieces of paper and adhere to 4 1/2 square.

Cut a 12 inch piece of cordinating ribbon and thread through holes as shown below.

Place a sucker in the middle. I purchased some nice 1 1/2 inch ball shaped suckers at Dollar General for $1 a bag. Tootsie Pops or Blow Pops would work too. This is how I tied mine and it worked great.

Using the circle scallop punch, punch a circle out of cordinating paper and punch as shown below.

Attach stamped image punched out with 1 3/8 inch circle punch and then thread over sucker stick.
Told you it was super easy. :) Now only 24 or so more to make.

Happy Creating!
Jennifer
