Trio of Treats

Hi - Jean Okimoto here - with a party favor for your next celebration.  Hope you like the colors as much as I do - it would a great family project for Easter!

Everyone loves rosettes - and the Rollagraph Design Wheels are the perfect  size and shape for stamping your favorite designs.  Just remove the lid and snap the Jumbo  Ink Cartridge into the Jumbo Inking Handles. Insert the Jumbo Design Wheels.  Engage the cartridge by pushing the little tab towards the Design Wheel - and roll away!

Diecut the strip with Memory Box's Blooming Rosette.  I like to snip half a petal off at one end (about 1/4") to make it easier to attach the ends later.  Pleat the strip on the scorelines.  Glue the ends together to form a ring.  Place a thick layer of adhesive on a 1.5" circle of scrap cardboard  Working on the back side, form the ring into a rosette.  Place the glue-y cardboard circle onto the center of the rosette and press firmly for about a minute.  Carefully turn it over to the right side.

Using a Stylus and White Blending Tips, ink the ridges and tips of the rosettes with Pinkolicious, Grape Slushy or Tree Frog ColorBox Archival Dye Inks.

Attach a piece of Scor-Tape to a scrap of green cardstock and brush Peridot Glitter onto the adhesive.  Punch or diecut it into a 1" circle.  Repeat with pink cardstock and Cotton Candy Glitter.  Repeat with turquoise cardstock and Ocean Spray Glitter.

Attach the glittered circles to the center of the rosettes.

Fill the jars with treats.  Attach a narrow strip of Scor-Tape around the rim, leaving about 2" untaped in the center front.  Fold a 6" x 18" piece of tulle lengthwise, turning the long cut ends towards the center.  Tie the tulle around the jars then trim the ends.

Attach the rosettes to the treat jars - and share the goodies with the special people in your life!
