Sucker for You

Were you totally wowed like I was by Tuesday’s release projects from the Clear and Simple Stamps design team? If you haven’t checked out the projects yet, visit the release day post on the CSS blog showing off all the new releases along with links to everyone’s release day project.

Here’s another project with images from the Little Critters collection. This time, I used one of the smaller critter images along with CSS’s Tags 1 die to make a simple presentation for a sweet treat.

I die cut the large tag from white cardstock, then stamped the matching broken line outline on the die cut tag in white ink. A strip of heart patterned paper is attached to the bottom of the tag. I stamped the cute raccoon image from the Taglines: Critters set on gray cardstock and cut it out, then used foam tape to set it on the tag, positioning the foam so that it was just at the edges of the image. This allowed me to slide the stick of a seasonal heart shaped red lollipop between the image and the tag and have it stay securely. The “sucker for you” sentiment is stamped on a red notch-edged strip that extends just a bit off the tag’s right edge. A matching red satin ribbon tied through the hole at the top of the tag finishes it off. These would make such cute little Valentine’s Day treats to hand out in a classroom, wouldn’t they?
