Baby Shower Favors
Monday, January 5, 2009
Happy New Year! I hope your holidays were wonderfully relaxing! As you can see, the new year brings a new design to my blog. I've started to dabble a bit in digital scrapbooking. So far I've only learned enough to do a very simple blog header.
I have a busy week ahead of me. I'm hosting Colin's birthday party on Saturday and a baby shower for my Sister-in-law on Sunday. The picture above shows some party favors I made for the baby shower. They are filled with 6 Hershey Kisses. I found a tutorial here. The shape of the container comes from sour cream containers that come with your baked potato from fast food places (Wendy's).
I used some old supplies on this project. The footprint stamp is so old that the rubber is hard! The paper comes from an old Paper Pizazz paper pack. I think I bought that over 5 years ago when Halle was born.
These containers were so easy and quick to make. The kids had fun helping me fill them. I made the first 10 or so using sticky tape like the tutorial shows. Once I ran out, I used regular snail adhesive and the process was much quicker.
Card Stock: Whisper White (Stampin' Up!)
Patterned Paper: Mixing Baby Papers (Paper Pizazz)
Ink: Bashful Blue, Night of Navy (Stampin' Up!)
Accessories: 1 3/4" Circle Punch (EK Success), Stampin' Sponge, Blue Sheer & Grosgain Ribbon (Offray), 1/4" Circle Punch (Stampin' Up!), Snail Adhesive

Congrats on the hits!
Love your containers, they are so cute! I like that they all coordinate, but aren't exactly the same.
Dana,
Love your creativity and your entire blog! I am a relatively new stamper (almost a year) and I believe you and I have about the same inventory of stamp sets!
Didn't look too far back~but good for you posting all of these completed projects and cards!
Someday maybe I'll muster up the strength and set aside a week to figure out how to create one...not today. Thanks for sharing!
