Today’ on Create with Connie and Mary Holiday Edition, we have a challenge for our subscribers to create a favor…any 3D type of project they would use at a party, or give to a friend…just a little something small!
I came up with a way to use the stash of test tubes that I have in my storage area! I filled one with Cocoa powder, one with crushed peppermints, and two with small marshmallows…because I like LOTS of marshmallows in my hot cocoa! Wouldn’t this be fun as a little treat for someone? Or to tuck in a stocking?
Of course, I had to jazz it up with some type of stamping on it!
- I adhered the test tubes together with mini glue dots.
- I wrapped a strip of Snow Festival Designer Paper around the tubes to hold in place.
- I wrapped the Gumball Green Sweater Trim around and tied a tag on front.
- For the tag, I cut two of the Window Frames Collection Framelits from Cherry Cobbler and Gumball Green.
- I paper pierced around the smaller one with the Festive template.
- I inked up the cocoa cup from Scentsational Seasons with Baja Breeze and Chocolate Chip for the liquid, then cut it and the steam with the Holiday Collection framelits.
- Finally, I added little bling with a Rhinestone Jewel in the center of the snowflake design. It’s popped up on the front of the Frames with Stampin’ Dimensionals!
Here’s the back side:
Isn’t it fun???? I love how it turned out! Come on…you know you have a stash of those test tubes in your storage area…get them out and make one for yourself or a friend!
