December 08, 2015
Need a fun but inexpensive gift for your co-workers, clubs, groups, neighbors, friends? Try this little cutie!
Yep, this DIY snowman gift has a a big chocolate bar inside and the outside is just as much fun! The best part is that it is inexpensive! I'm going to give you the directions and following that--I'll provide the supply list so you can purchase what you need to create these cute inexpensive gifts.
Here's how to create this gift
- Wrap a piece of Whisper White card stock around your candy bar (this size will depend on your candy bar--so measure the length--cut the length from the long side of the cardstock; then wrap the cardstock around and secure the ends together with Tear and Tape,
- Using a dauber color the cheeks with Blushing Bride ink. Punch two 1"circles from Pool Party cardstock--glue these on as the eye base with multipurpose liquid glue. Punch two 3/4" circles from white cardstock and layer on the 1"circles with liquid glue. Punch two 1/2" circles from scrap black cardstock and layer on top of the white. Using the chalk marker make small semicircles in the outer part of the black--see picture.
- Cut a triangle from Pumpkin pie cardstock and glue on as the nose.
- Using the extra large oval punch, move a piece of scrap red cardstock about halfway into the punch--punch and toss this piece in the trash. Now move the cardstock up about 1/4" (make sure the ends form points) and punch out the smile--adhere this with liquid glue.
- Cut a piece of striped Bermuda ribbon and tie about the base of the candy bar and tie in a knot.
- Take a knitted mitten and fit the cuff over the top of the candy bar. Using a 15"piece of silver cording, pull the mitten tight right over the top of the bar and tie the cording in a bow.
You are done! How simple was that?
