Santa’s Workshop Craft Along Day 3: Elegant Fun Fold Card + Santa Treat Holder

Welcome to Day 3 of the Santa’s Workshop Craft Along! Today’s projects bring a mix of elegance and whimsy. We’re making a striking red-and-gold fun fold card using the Modern Christmas DSP, plus a sweet Santa treat holder designed to gift candies, mints, or small holiday goodies. Both projects use the Festive Friends and Ornamental Christmas bundles, keeping everything coordinated and festive.

This bold and elegant fun fold card features Real Red cardstock paired with the Modern Christmas DSP. The gold stars and tree patterns shine against the deep black panel, while the front flap is decorated with a sentiment label reading ’Tis the Season. A soft beige ribbon and a layered star die-cut add dimension and pull all the colors together. It’s festive, classy, and such a fun layout to recreate.

The second project is a cheerful treat holder featuring the North Pole Delivery DSP. The clear cello front shows off your treats while the topper is decorated with patterned paper, ribbon, and an adorable Santa from the Festive Friends bundle. A small sentiment strip sits just under him, and the back includes a panel where you can write a message or sign your name—perfect for classroom gifts, coworker treats, or stocking stuffers!
