I earned the Scentsational Season stamp set for free and I never thought I would fall in love with it, but it's recently won me over. Carmen DeBruce brought this super-cute hot cocoa packet holder to our Demo Team Holiday Catalog Shoebox Swap, to seal the deal! Take a look!
CASEd from Dawn Olchefske at DOStamping.
What a perfect little thank you for teachers, or holiday gift for co-workers, and friends! And, it's SO easy to make!
Make Your Own Cocoa Pouch
- Start with a 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" sheet of card stock, and fold in half, and open again.
- Using the Diagonal Scoring Plate on the Simply Scored base, score diagonally on the 5-1/2" side at the half way mark, 2-3/4", then fold that corner down and adhere.
- Close the card, then punch two 1/4" holes on the side with a hole punch or Crop-A-Dile.
- Thread ribbon through the holes to tie closed. Optional: Tie on a peppermint stick or candy cane.
You don't need to adhere the bottom of the packet, simply decorate the front and it's ready to give!
The coffee cup from the Scentsational Season set is simply darling when you add the steam coming out of it! TIP: After you ink your cup in Gumball Green and before you stamp it, use a Blender Pen or cotton swab to lift the green color from where the contents of the cup should be. You can then use an Early Espresso Marker to add the color of coffee or hot chocolate.
Cutting the shapes out is a breeze with the matching Holiday Collection Framelits! Ordering TIP: Don't forget to purchase the Holiday Collection Framelits and the Scentsational Season set as a bundle—the Scentsational Season Bundle price is 15% off!
Add Fragrance! Carmen had us cut a slit in the cup image so we could slide our candy cane "into" the cup! How cute! And, don't forget that you can even add a yummy scent to your candy cane image with the Peppermint Embossing Powder (there's also Sugar & Spice!)! This fragrant powder heat embosses to a clear finish and keeps it's scent for up to two weeks!
