A Festive Treat Holder You’ll Love to Make

Today I’m sharing these super cute Christmas Candy Cane Pouches — a quick and cheerful project that’s perfect for the festive season. These pouches are ideal for stocking fillers, table favours, teacher gifts, or a little something extra to pop into a neighbour’s letterbox. They look gorgeous, yet they come together in minutes, making them excellent for batch-making.

Three Designs, Endless Possibilities

I created three variations to show how easily you can switch up the look simply by changing the cardstock and paper:

  • Real Red + Traditions of Christmas DSP – A bright and classic Christmas design with traditional poinsettias and rich festive tones.
  • Garden Green + Christmas Tags & More DSP – A fun and playful version with candy canes and cheerful patterns.
  • Real Red + North Pole Delivery DSP – A nostalgic, postage-themed design that feels wonderfully whimsical and perfect for gifting.

Each pouch is decorated using a selection of die-cuts from the Christmas Tags & More DSP, along with coordinating Greetings for You cardstock stickers. These elements make decorating quick, easy, and beautifully cohesive.

Simple to Make, Fun to Gift

These pouches hold two candy canes comfortably and can be adapted to suit almost any occasion. You could easily swap the treats for chocolate sticks, mini gifts, pencils, or even a wrapped biscuit. They’re the perfect project if you enjoy creating small, yet meaningful, handmade gifts.

You’ll find that the construction is wonderfully straightforward. All you need is cardstock, your chosen DSP, adhesive, and a few embellishments. I’ll add a full supply list and measurements at the end of this post so you can recreate them exactly.

I love to make little candy cane holders or pouches. I make them every year. Here is my offering this year. They are easy to make and hold one candy cane, though they could hold more.

They are great for using up scrap pieces of patterned paper which we all have. The snowflakes are the One of a Kind dies and I cut them from the Festive Glimmer Designer Series Paper (DSP).

Measurements

  • A Little Bit Festive DSP – 4″ X 4″ scored at 1/2″ on one side and 1 3/4″ & 3 1/2″ on the other side.

Gosh, I’m so pleased with how this turned out. I wanted to make this card ever since I first saw the Candy Canes stamp set in the catalogue. The contrast between the white heat embossing and the red background is so striking.

Heat embossing is very easy to do but always feels like magic to me. This dull powder becomes glossy and beautiful as it melts under the heat tool. To make this card I used a larger panel than I needed of real red so that I could cut it down to get or of any imperfections around the edges. Please do watch the video and try it yourself. Enjoy the magic!!!

measurements

  • Thick Basic White A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Real Red – 1/4 sheet of an A4 Sheet

This is another card we did in Card Club. Card Club is held in my Facebook Group once a month. You can find all the details here. As I’m not allowed, as per Stampin’ Up! rules to included stamped images as part of the kit, these cards are based more on die cuts than stamps.

The dies I’ve used here are the Sweetest Border dies. It cuts these lovely border images. I’ve done a second companion card using another die from the same set. It should be up in a few days time. The real red against the whisper white makes everything pop and the rhinestones just add that lovely touch of bling.

measurements

  • Shaded Spruce A6 Card Base. This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Whisper White – 14.35cm X 10cm
  • Shaded Spruce – 10cm X 4cm
