VALENTINE'S DAY 2013

 

 

Cones made from 12x12 heavy scrapbooking paper, used the Martha Stewart circle punch to make a doily and then lined them with a doily from the dollar store, stapled the holder securly and then used the Valentine tinsel ($ store again) to cover the staples and give a finished appearance.  Filled with pencis, candy, trinkets and a $10 iTunes card.

The cartons in the front are paper to go cartons that I made a label for (I use Corel Draw X6) and glued ribbon around the top.  Both the container and the top are paper and the container is coated so I don't have to put anything else in the carton but the yummy Valentine Snowball cookies.

The "Group"

Could not help myself - they just looked so cute sitting together so thought I would post.  Since moving my craft room has been the last to be done (that is if you don't look in the garage) and I should have had my nose to the grindstone today getting my room in order but I so needed to let out some creative energy, so I did!!

Gift #4

Adorable jar with spoon from Hobby Lobby (they are available through Amazon.com too but way more expensive). This one was easy too - spicy hot chocolate mix (Trader Joe's) into the jar, made the labels using the same graphic as in #3, same ribbon too. The lable on top give the instructions for making the hot chocolate.
