Supplies:Stamps: The Snowflake Spot |
 |
| 1. Make a small box to hold the candy -- 2 Hershey's Treasures candy will fit in this size. Cut Night of Navy cardstock to 2" by 3", then score 1/2" from all 4 sides. Clip the cardstock along the score line up to the score line on all 4 corners, and fold up to create the box. |  |
| 2. Fold the Vellum Cardstock so the small box will sit in the center. Use the Blizzard Jumbo Wheel to stamp snowflakes on the Vellum Cardstock as shown. |  |
3. Fold a piece of Brocade Blue ribbon over the top of the packet. Secure in place with 2 brads--one from the Hodgepodge Hardware, the other from the Build-A-Brad set. Use the Build-A-Brad to hold a d-ring from the Hodgepodge Hardware set in place as shown. 4. Pick a small frame from the Hodgepodge Hardware kit and use Craft & Rubber Scissors to cut one end from the frame, creating a hanging tag. Tie the tag onto the d-ring with Hemp Twine. |
 |
| 5. Finish the Build-A-Brad by stamping a snowflake from The Snowflake Spot in Night of Navy on the Brocade Blue cardstock. Punch the snowflake center with the 1/2" Circle Punch, then add a Mini Glue Dot to the back of the circle. |  |
| 6. Press the circle onto the Build-A-Brad, and add the acrylic bubble to the top to finish the brad. |  |
| 7. Stamp snowflakes from The Snowflake Spot onto Avery Mailing Labels. Peel the labels up and apply them to the Hershey's Treasure candies. |  |
8. Add the "joy" tag to the Hodgepodge Hardware frame and finish as shown. Give to friend, family or coworker as a Cutie Candy Packet gift! |
