Lil' Cupid Treats

Yeah its Friday!! This is Barb from BugBites with a couple sweet treat projects using the newly released file, Lil' Cupid Girls.You can get these files now at the SVG Cutting Files store. 

I did two different projects for you today. Yes, in this set you get both of these adorable little cupids. 

My first project is a one I have done a few times. What can I say, it's an oldie but goody treat holder. It holds a roll of lifesaver candies. 

It's quite simple and takes only a couple sheets of 4x6 paper. You can find the tutorial here. 

I sized my die cut to 2" and added her with some foam tape.

The second project is also an oldie but goody, the 6" tube and tube holder filled with treats. 

I think I have done a version of this for just about every holiday. They are so cute sitting next to the computer or phone at work not to mention the treats inside. This cupid was cut at 2.75".  

The tube holder and the Lil' Cupid Girls can be found in the SVG Cutting Files store now.

Have a crafty day!

Hello Everyone and Welcome to a VERY Magical Celebration!!

(complete line up located at bottom of post) This is such a FUN and Magical HOP! We may be Celebrating Trixie's Birthday a little bit late, but magical creations take time!  
So DEAR, SWEET Trixie is a girl of my own heart, she LOVES DISNEY...(who doesnt, right?)  She has ALOT of favorites and I think she narrowed it down really well...  I chose to make her an Adorable Minnie Mouse Ears hat MINI Slider Card attached to a Fun and Whimsical Candy Tube Holder! I Absolutely LOVE how the Mouse ears turned out!!

I Lacquered the ears so they would like like the plastic ones they sell at the theme parks & I was going to FLOCK the hat to make it look like 'felt', but I didn't have BLACK flocking! Grrrrrr!! What is a girl to do?   I opted to do the next best thing, and HAND STITCHED to Personalize her own Minnie Mouse Ears!

here is a SIDE view of the candy tube holder

Here is the Slider MINI hat.... pull on the ears....!!

Hard to tell..but the ears are lacquered to give it a nice PLASTIC look! 

Then I stamped my Jaded Blossom Sentiment to it!

added some JB stamps and Dies to the top of the tubes to tie in the theme a bit more!

They are sooo Awesome! 

So easy and simply to do!! Finish it off by adding some RED Ribbon with White Polka Dots, just like Minnie!!  Stamp a sentiment to your insert card and secure the closure with a mini velcro dot!! Next, create your DOUBLE candy Tube holder, and just go to town with the Black, White, Red & Yellow Color Theme!
