Project Tuesday 6 Pack Challenge.....
Hi Everyone! I've finally succumbed to Christmas and started on my Christmas projects at last *smile*
I purchased some little 1 x 8" cello bags from a fellow demo recently without really knowing what I would do with them. Then I came across some bags of Christmas jelly beans at Woolworths for only $2.00 and just knew that they would be perfect for my daughter to give out to her school friends instead of candy canes this Christmas.
While doing my regular Challenge Blog Site surfing this week I came across the Project Tuesday Six Pack Challenge. Instantly I knew that I had to join in with this one because it would be perfect for the jelly bean bags. Now my daughter will have something pretty to hold the jelly beans while she hands them out to her friends.
Here's what I came up with -
And a jelly bean bag -
I started putting the jelly beans in any which way but then the OCD got the better of me and I had to redo them in a colour pattern *smile*
If you decide to join in this challenge and make the 6 pack holder, I found a little error in the PDF. At Step 6, I found the measurements should read 'cut two pieces of cardstock 6 1/4" x 6 1/4".'
Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend!

These are sooooo cute. Love them with the jelly beans in, and I completely understand what you mean by colour coding them.
Hi Sandra,
I enjoy looking at the Project Tuesday blog, and I was delighted to see that you have done a project. I love this project you have done.
Hope you had a good weekend

Sandra, this looks great, now I wish I got some of those bags lol, I too had trouble with the two cuts, grrr.. had to go back and do another lot, AFTER I put the sticky strip on ha ha ha.
Wonderful project! Your little jelly beans even match the DSP. Thank you for joining us at Project Tuesday.
You are such a good mum, Sandra! How special for your daughter to have such a gorgeous gift box to "show off". These are sure to be a hit! Hugs xxaxx
These are super cool!
TFS!
