Spirits of Christmas Past - Candy Bar Holder

Here's a project from the Spirits of Christmas Past SVG Collection from SVGcuts.com. It resembles a frame with holiday wishes. Love the SVG cut file of the berry twig and leaf. Original frame in this collection had three butterflies instead of the words: Joy. The recessed words are imported and re-sized from the Merry & Bright SVG Collection. Using the SCAL (Sure Cuts a Lot) computer program, this can easily be accomplished. The trumpet was imported from another cut file in the collection: Star Ornament. This, and all other SVG Collections have a assembly tutorial to follow - love that!!!Finish project size is 6-3/4" x 3-5/8" x 3/4". To give this project a lot of character, sponge everywhere!

Here's a closer view of the greenery. They are popped with dimensionals. The hemp single knotted bow is attached with a mini glue dot.

Oops, forgot to let you all know this frame fits a chocolate bar inside...cool, eh!

Here's the back of the project with it's self closing clasp.......I love that stamp made by Punkin Patch Stamps called Holiday Traditions. You can get this stamp set here.
