Each Design Team member will be featuring a project each day (Saturday & Sunday) made especially for this hop. Make sure to check out each DT member's blog and collect the special letter there. There will be prizes along the way at our DT members' blogs, AND there will be some nice PRIZES with a few different ways to win at CookingWithCricut.com!
Today's project is extremely simple. After making 18 treat bags for my daughter's birthday party last week, I decided I didn't want to make another 30 :) I wanted something quick and easy, that could be quickly replicated. I decided to make lollipop covers. I followed a tutorial by the wonderful Emma, that I found HERE. So here are my cute and simple lollipop covers:
I used George and Basic Shapes to cut the rectangle for the cover (6" x 2.25") and to cut the heart (1.3"). The cutie face on the heart is from Peachy Keen Stamps - I love them :)
I punched 1/8th inch holes with my Crop-a-dile. I then tied the bow, and stuck a twist tie through it so I could fasten the cover shut. Isn't that brilliant? Emma showed me that on her video... The stamps on the front and back are both from Stampin Up.
I decided to use 2 lollipops in each cover. I had hoped to find a thicker lollipop. but my local bulk barn didn't have any.
My daughter thought these were so cute, and the best thing?? I spent $1.50 on lollipops - so much better than the $15 I spent on treat bag candy last week :)
I have 2 giveaways of you today. The wonderfuland talented Melin has donated cut files/ digi stamps for each of us to giveaway, and I have some stamps as blog candy too! The winner of this prize can decide if they want Melins design as a digi stamp, or a cut file. Here it is:
