Hello Stampers,
Sorry it's taken me a while to get this to ya. If I left something off, please let me know.
The measurements for this one is different than the Xmas Gum holder on my Chic n' Scratch Shack. I had to trim it a little to make the "Merry Christmas" fit. The original measurements are..... cut your cardstock at 2 1/2 x 8 1/2 and then score at 2 1/4, 2 3/8, 5 1/2 & 5 5/8.
After you score the cardstock, use your word window punch on the longest end.
If you keep the original measurements you don't need to use the Dotto adhesive, it just stays closed by itself.
Thanks again!!!
Supplies used....
Stamps: Cold Play & Holidays & Wishes
Ink: Black Stazon, Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red Marker & Bashful Blue Marker
Cardstock: Whisper White
Tools & Accessories: 1 1/4 Circle Punch, Word Window Punch, Chalk, Sponge, Scissors & Dimensionals

Thanks for the all the wonderful tutorials, Angie! They've been so helpful! I just completed Trident gum holders for my students as Valentine treats!

Really cute idea a friend sent me a link to your blog and boy was I happy about that when I saw all the cute demos you had. Where do you find the small trident. My store only carries the thicker packs that do not fit in the word punch? Again thanks for sharing.
