Happy Friday everyone! I had another AHA moment recently with the Coffin Die. If you are like me, you're looking for ways to get the most bang for your buck when purchasing dies. Well, I just realized you can use the Coffin Die for Christmas to make Rudolph's face for various Christmas favors. To create the ears I used the Mushroom Die. His antlers were created using parts of the Tiki Hut Dies. Googly eyes and a red pom-pom for the nose finished them off. Aren't they CUTE?!
Since the challenge this month is HOLIDAY TREATS, I wanted to show you guys various ways you can package hot cocoa using these adorable Reindeer. I created sentiment tags for all 3 using the Label Shape Dies, Hot Cocoa Stamp Set, and Reindeer Blend Stamp Set.
For the first sample, I used 3 of the 1x6 Inch Clear Tubes from the Jaded Blossom Store. I filled one with hot cocoa mix, one with mini marshmallows, and one tube with crushed candy canes. I used a rubber band to secure the 3 together and then wrapped them with a wide striped ribbon. Those cute candy cane spoons are from the Dollar Tree.
For the next project, I filled Cone Bags with hot cocoa mix, mini marshmallows and crushed candy canes. I tied off the tops and then tied on a candy spoon and the tags.
My last project uses the Scallop Caddy Die to hold the hot cocoa mix, marshmallows and mini candy canes. I used the new Buffalo Plaid Stencil to create the pattern on the box.
We hope you play along with us in our November Challenge for a chance to win a FREE Stamp Set!! Be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes.
Hugs,
Rosie
