Its crunch time for Valentine treat bags! All the kids treat bags for their friends are done, packed and ready to be brought to school on Monday. Now that just leaves the important people in mom's life! I came up with this little treat container from a recent Stampin' Up publication that demonstrators get (just another perk of being a SU demo). I sat down and created these heart pouches for some special people I want to remember on Monday. You really can't tell from the picture but I embossed the pouch with a texturz plate on my Big Shot, used some punches (heart to heart, and the modern label) to embellish the outside of the pouch and added "happy valentine's day" from the teeny tiny wishes stamp set. The next decision: what to put in the pouches??
Nothing other than 2 peppermint patties! I used some ribbon to tie the patty (they have new packaging so the ribbon was needed to hold down the sides), added a scallop to each side with a heart from the Simply Said stamp set in the center and voila---Done! By the way, if you are jealous of all the great resources Stampin' Up provides their demos---don't be JOIN! Stampin' Up is having a wonderful promotion through March 31st.
