Here's a quick and easy Valentine's project for that special someone.
If you would like to see this image enlarged, simply click on the image.
I am using the set Happy Heart Day which is included in our January Valentine's Day Special which is described back on my home page. You can get a FREE Regal Rose 5/8" spool of ribbon (a $7.95 value!)
Take a piece of white card stock and cut 5 1/2 x 6 (or the size to wrap around your candy bar). I am using a Nestle's Crunch bar that is 1.55 oz. -- found them on sale for 3 for $1.
Stamp your image toward the bottom and center in Basic Black Classic ink or StazOn ink if you have that available. Let it dry thoroughly before water coloring. If you are using Basic Black Classic ink, be careful to not touch the lines if possible -- sometimes it might bleed. This is why some stampers prefer StazOn.
I took another strip of designer series paper, 1 1/2 inches, to wrap around the bar towards the top.
Make your tag, stamping, thoroughly drying and watercoloring as you did on your first image. I took a strip of Old Olive and punched a 1/8 hole in it. Then I took my 1/2 circle punch and punched, centering the 1/8 hole. Adhere to tag and punch through the 1/8 hole to open the 2 layers of the tag. I ran some stretchy silver cord through the hole and made a loop.
I used Double-Stitched Purely Pomegranate ribbon to wrap around the bar. After tying the first loop, I inserted my silver cord loop, then tied the second loop.
Enjoy!
