I have created this little project for "Sweets for my Sweet." It's simple and quick to make! I think this is a cute and fun way to dress up those Sweethearts candies:
Materials:
scrap of red cardstock 2.5" x 7.5"
scraps of white cardstock 1" x 7.5" and 2" x 2"
black ink
heart stamp
Cuttlebug folders: Swiss Dots and Love Stamp (emboss and die combo)
Cuttlebug
First, stamp hearts randomly on the red cardstock. Wrap it around the Sweethearts box and make creases along the corners of the box. Using a bone folder or similar, fold the cardstock along the creases, creating a nice, crisp fold.
Wrap the paper around the box, cleverly hiding the seam, and adhere.
Take your white scrap 1" x 7.5" and run it through the Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots folder. You will have a little bit at the end that is not embossed. This part will be covered up, so there's no need to emboss it.
Using the black ink pad, gently apply ink to the embossing.
Wrap cardstock around the Sweethearts box, again creasing it along the corners of the box. The un-embossed bit will be on the front of the box. Carefully make the creases crisper. Adhere to the box, and remember to put the un-embossed part in the front!
Next, take the white square and cut the Stamp die cut. Emboss the Stamp using the Love Stamp embossing folder. Gently apply ink to the embossed image using your ink pad. Adhere to the front of the box using pop-dots, concealing the un-embossed white strip.
And now you have a personalized Sweet for your Sweet for Valentine's Day!
I hope you've enjoyed this quick and easy Cuttlebug project!
