CUTE & CRAFTY CANDY WRAPS | with Karen

It is back to school time in the Scrappycanuck household! The summer has come to an end and we are starting to get back into the groove of things. Well....sort of...

But you know what always helps with these kinds of transitions? Doodlebug and chocolate, of course! And while the new Cute and Crafty collection is perfect for us crafters, it also happens to be PERFECT for school themed projects too! So I decided to make some little chocolate bar sliders that I could give to some of my teaching colleagues just as a way of saying, "Welcome back and here's a little something just in case!"

Chocolate bar sliders are really just a little sleeve that you create to cover a tasty treat of your choice! The ribbon is tied in a way that the bar can slide up without having to be untied. But really, if someone just needs to get right in there quickly, the bow offers a quick release method as well! 

As I was deciding on the papers I wanted to use for the project, I realized that the 4"x3" cards on the Precious Posies paper was the perfect size for my sliders and offered all sorts of cute options for my sentiments. How easy is that?

I embellished them a bit with some Sprinkles and Mini Jewels and then created the sleeve from the Bright Ideas paper - my favourite pattern in this collection actually! I added some Mini Doilies and Min Paper clips for texture and interest too! Once they were loaded up, I was all set.

Well, I have a few more of these to finish up for my pals so I better get back to the crafty table! If you are facing any transitions right now in your life, I hope they are as smooth as chocolate for you too! Thanks for stopping by!
