Snow Place Snowman Tic Tac Holders


Ooooooh, just look at these cute Snowman Tic Tac Holders....

I made one of these for each of my club members.  I think they all loved them!!



Would you like to know how to make them??

 I thought so.....

Well, here you go!




Start with a Whisper White piece of card stock cut to 3" x 4 5/8".  Score this piece at 2" on either end of the long piece.

Round the corners of this piece with our Project Life Corner Rounder Punch.

Next, stamp the following (from the Snow Place set):

-the snowman (and his arms) in Basic Black Archival ink
-the earmuffs, buttons and candy cane in Real Red ink
-the snowflakes in Pool Party ink

The candy cane was die-cut using the coordinating Snow Friends Framelits.

 This stamp set and framelits are also bundled together for a 15% savings on both items!!

I also colored the snowman's nose in with our Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Write Marker.

Snow Place Photopolymer Bundle  140844  $45.00



Brights Stampin' Write Markers  131259  $29.00




On the inside of the tic tac holder, I added a strip of the Real Red 1/8" Striped Ribbon.  The ribbon and tic tacs are held in place with Fast Fuse on the back of the cover.


I also added a 1 3/4" x 2 3/4" piece of Schoolhouse Designer Series Paper to the inside cover of the tic tac holder (to help keep the ribbon in place).

Fast Fuse  129026  $10.00



Schoolhouse Designer Series Paper  138187  $11.00




A 7/8" Scallop Circle was punched from the snowman's belly to reveal the tic tacs inside.

Then, just tie a bow with the remaining Real Red Striped Ribbon, and you're all set!
