This month's Stamp Club Projects were of the treat variety.
With Christmas quietly sneaking up on us I thought it would be good to be prepared with some quick & easy treats.
I changed turned the Halloween Treats into Christmas treats by simply changing the colours & adding a different stamped sentiment from the Punches Three Hostess Set.
I've taken a Whittakers long chocolate log & embellished it:
Start with a 5"x3" piece of Riding Hood Red & scallop the short ends, then wrap it around the bar & secure it in place.
Next, I've used a piece of Garden Green DSP from the Hostess Pack of 6x6 Designer Series Papers - trimmed to 3 1/2" x 3 & wrapped that around the bar.
I've tied a 25cm piece of 1 1/4" Riding Hood Red Striped Grosgrain (from the Spring Mini) around the bar with a reef knot (left over right, then right over left)
The to finish it off I've used the Curly Label Bundle to create my tag; I stamped the striped image with Riding Hood Red Ink & punched it out with the Curly Label Punch. Next, I stamped the "Merry Christmas" image in Garden Green & cut out just the oval. I mounted it on to garden Green card stock & trimmed around the curly label (leaving a 2-3mm border).
Finally, I punched a hole with my crop-a-dile & threaded through a piece of twine to attach it to my ribbon - Viola a super cute & yummy treat.
Our last project was the triangle box using the Winter Post stamp set, which I'm working on a video for - so keep your eye's peeled for that one.

Oh, before I go I must remind you that the SPRING Mini Catalogue ends on Monday November 30th - but I will need all orders & payment in before then to make sure I meet the order deadline - You don't want to miss out!
