It's that time of year again...time to get ready for the holidays...and if you are a crafter...you are super busy! Sometimes fast and simple is your friend for those quick Christmas ideas. I decided to make a quick lollipop holder-this could hold a cake pop, a chocolate on a stick....anything with a stick. Super cute to add to a gift bag, throw into or on a wrapped gift...tie on a wine bottle...you could even number them and use them like an advent calendar. I LOVED how quick and easy this was to make. Everything White, Green and Red is on sale right now at CutCardStock.com...so hurry up and get shopping!!!! I especially love the Limba white card stock-it has a FAB wood grain-LOVE! Thanks for stopping by...Lee-Ann :)
**pan down to check out all the products that I used and see a quick tutorial on how to make this
*first chose your card stocks....mine are all from CutCardStock.com
*chose your dies and stamps-mine are all from Jaded Blossom, cut the white card stock with the Lollipop die-Love the wood grain, cut the snowflake die using dark red card stock...and cut an oval die with green card stock
*stamp the Believe sentiment on the green oval with an acrylic block and Versamark ink-first use the anti-static powder tool to avoid a mess...then add Ranger white embossing powder and melt with a heat gun
*add the snowflake to the front center of the lollipop holder, then add the sentiment on top with foam tape for dimension, I then cut a zig zag border out of Green card stock and attached it across the bottom as a ground(for the eye)
*add Nuvo Crystal Drops and Nuvo Glitter drops in an odd number as an accent, I also added a bow to the lollipop stick as an accent(I used a Bow Easy to tie the bow)
