A Little Magical Sweetness

Hi All! Just thought I'd share some more projects featuring Close To My Heart's Magical Collection. 

Last month, Close To My Heart held its North America convention at Walt Disney World's Coronado Springs Resort. I attended along with several friends. (Much fun was had by all!) I decided to make some little gift bags for my friends and fill them with Magical goodness. Here's a look at two of the containers I made and filled with candy:


The little blue bag is made from Magical paper and closed by tucking the flap behind the sentiment. The sentiment is from the Little Presents stamp set. I stamped it in Cranberry ink on White Daisy cardstock and punched it out using a 1-inch circle punch. I then punched a 1 1/4-inch circle from the yellow and white polka dot paper. I popped both up with foam tape, making sure to put the tape toward the bottom of the yellow circle so that the flap could tuck behind it. (I filled it with 6 Hershey Kisses.)

The box is made from White Daisy cardstock and matted with Magical paper. (The red and white polka dot pattern is my favorite!) I had originally filled it with Jolly Rancher candies, but my kids consumed my leftovers, so I show it below with Hershey Kisses. (It could also hold a lipstick or possibly nail polish.) I added a little decoration to the box using white twine and a sentiment from the retired Friendly Wishes stamp set.

Hope you like these little treats of Magical Sweetness. I'll have a tutorial up for them soon. Stay tuned for more little gifties....

In the meantime, have a wonderfully creative day!
