Anti-Bacterial Gel holder

This darling Anti-Bacterial gel holder can be decorated any way you wish and for whichever holiday or special occasion.  What a cute little gift or party favor to send home with your guests!
Here is the inside:
Step by Step Tutorial:
Start with 2 pieces of card stock. One measures 10" x 3" and the other 6" x 1 1/2"


Score the large piece at 1", 2", 5 1/2" and 6 1/2". 

Fold as shown, then set aside:

 Score the small piece, (along the long edge) at 1/2", 1 1/2", 4 1/2", 5 1/2".

Now turn the card stock and score at 1/4" and 1 1/4".


Use Bone Folder to make crisp creases on all score lines.

Use scissors to cut out 4 corners as shown:

Use Large Oval Punch (#119855) to make opening in center section. Punch it as close as possible to the score line near the bottom.

Now insert the Oval Punch again and slide it up so it is as close as possible to the score line at the top. You will be taking out an additional sliver, just to make the oval a little larger.

Your oval should now look like this:

Apply Sticky Strip to the 4 outside edges as shown (it's a little hard to see the red Sticky Strip on the Cherry Cobbler card stock):


Peel off one long edge of Sticky Strip and attach to the inside of  bottom lip of the large piece:
Here is another view:

Peel off both short ends of Sticky Strip, and attach the sides:

Peel off final edge of Sticky Strip and attach to large piece to complete:

You may now put the Anti-Bacterial gel in place. It will be a little snug, but that's good - it helps hold it in place.

Use stamps, DSP, embellishments etc. to decorate as desired. This one has been decorated for Christmas:

Credits:  I saw this project at Pink Buckaroo Designs.  Erica decorated hers for Halloween. Fabulous!

I purchased Anti-Bacterial gel hand sanitizer at Bath & Bodyworks. They have cute Christmas ones, but I thought they smelled horrible! So I chose 3 pleasant scents that come in green bottles, which still match really well for Christmas.
