Amuse Studio Paper Carrot Treat

Look at the darling idea from Amuse Studio to make the sour cream containers for carrot Easter treats!  I'll show you a few tips!

You can make 4 sour cream containers out of one sheet of 8 ½" x11" card stock.  I used Amuse Studio's Orange Petite Polka Dot to get started and cut the card stock into 4 equal pieces.  Each piece measures 4 ¼" x 5 ½". 

Apply red sticky tape to both long sides and one short side.  

Remove the plastic liner from the sticky tape.  Adhere the short ends of the paper together to form a cylinder.  
Remove the plastic liner from the sticky tape and press the two sides together. Don't forget to add your treats!  
If you have a paper crimper this will help to reinforce the adhesive.  Slide the taped end into your crimper and slowly add two crimped lines. 
Remove the plastic liner from the sticky tape, then push the sides together in the opposite direction from the other end.  Crimp the edge of the container.

Decorate the container!

I love our new Crepe paper to make the little carrot top on the container.  This color is the Lime Crepe Paper Item #EAST502.  Our new Green Baker's cording is perfect for attaching a cute circle tag.  I die cut bunnies from our new Bunny Die Set and added die cut grass and/or a flower die.
Cute treats ready for some bunnies Easter basket!
