You are now at Carol Hartery's blog.  At Christmas time I gave my friends and family little treats that I embellished by stamping.  I decided to use that same technique to create some valentine treats.


Here's a package of Tic Tacs created for a valentine gift.



I used Denami Design's Decorative Love stamp, E124,  to embellish my paper.  I used a heart paper punch to punch a hole in the paper so that you could see the tic tacs and so that a red heart would show.  I also decorated around the top of the paper with some ribbon from my stash. 

Here's a candy bar decorated with Denami Design's Decorative Love stamp, E124 and Denami Design's Heart Flower Trio Circle stamp, J131. 


I fussy cut the Heart flower trio circle image before I adhered it to the paper I used to wrap around the candy bar. 

The post it holder I created is embellished with images from Denami Design's Decorative Love stamp, E124, Denami Design's Wavy Stem Trio stamp, F187, and Denami Design's Mini Heart stamp, A94.


I used thin poster Velcro to close the post it holder. 

Denami Design's Chickie with a Heart Balloon stamp, D112, is the perfect size for embellishing Hershey's miniature candy bars.


You could give some a baggie of decorated miniature candy bars or an assortment of the treats I have shown you.

Before you move along to Dana Seymour's fabulous blog at http://kismetartlife.blogspot.com please leave a comment on my blog.  If you love Denami Design's stamps you may want to become a follower of my blog because I often use them on my cards and other creations. 

Thanks for stopping by.  Hope you enjoy the blog hop and hope you'll visit my blog again soon. 

Have a great day!
Carol
