Sometimes all you need is some spectacular packaging to make even the smallest gift seem special! I love to make rocky road for Christmas. I am always thinking of ways to dress up my presentation . . . and I am looking forward to making more of these pretty pouches!

They may look a little time-consuming, but I assure you—they come together in a jiffy. I started with two banner pieces from the Build a Banner Simply Created Refill Kit. I cut the eyelets off one, then stitched them together, leaving the top open.

Next I used some of that fabulous paper from the Festive Designer Kraft Paper Rolls to die cut my stars. And don’t fret when you layer two of them! They become quite sturdy—same with the Typeset Specialty Designer Series Paper.

I love this pouch’s vintage/shabby chic vibe! Now I can’t wait to deliver my Christmas treats to my friends in these little beauties!
