These festive treats will go with us to a picnic tonight. Aren't those Kisses cool? I hadn't seen them before (of course, I don't get out much) but in case you're looking, I found them at K-Mart. Once I saw them, I knew instantly they needed a box with star "windows".
These Hershey bar wrappers are quick to make. This idea came from Dawn at her Stamping with Dawn site. They fit the snack size.- whisper white cardstock cut 3"x 3-3/4", scored at 1", 1-1/4", 2-1/2",2-3/4" on the long side
- blue square is 3/4", stripes are 3" by 1/8" (yes, tiny), trim ends after gluing on
- I fully intended to dot the blue with a white gel pen and add a star punched with the small star punch but those items are hiding from me together somewhere
- finish with 2-way glue pen and irridescent ice glitter on the white parts (correction: the glitter is Dazzling Diamonds, Irr. Ice is embossing powder and that would be way to much work for these!)
The box goes together quickly, too!
- measures 4"x4"x1", so I started with a 6"x11" piece
- be sure to stamp and punch and adhere window sheet before assembling box!
- stars are stamped in white craft ink using the stamp from Just Jawing
- star windows are simply punched with Stampin' Up!s star punch
And the last cool tip I have to share is an article over at http://www.pcworld.com/ . This a very good article on photographing fireworks with most any kind of camera. The link is below.
