SNOWMAN KISSES TIC TAC HOLDER I used a stamp set from Close To My Heart (my website is http://www.scaramico.ctmh.com/ ) They are no longer available - but I am sure you can use any snowman stamp that has a nice round belly!
TO make The Cover:
**Cut 1 piece of card stock 1 3/4”x 2 ¾” and set aside ( snowman panel)
Cut 1 piece of card stock 4 1/2" x 3".
Cut 1 piece of patterned paper 4 1/2" x 3"
Score each of these piece 2" from the left edge, and 2" from the right edge (you will have a 1/2" spine in the center of each piece of paper).
Cut a piece of coordinating ribbon about 14" long and glue it down to the center of the back of the patterned paper (side to side - opposite direction of scored spine).
Glue the patterned paper to the cardstock – the ribbon will be sandwiched between them.
Decorate the snowman panel ( 1 3/4" x 2 3/4" piece of cardstock) ; stamp the snowman, and color in and add Prisma Glitter ink the edges -etc...
Punch out the snowman's belly with a circle punch. Position on the cover and punch the same hole on the cover .
Stamp or write "to" and "from" inside the cover on the left hand side and stamp a few snowflakes there and on the poem too.
The Tic Tac Container:
**Peel the label off the container front, top and back. (OPTIONAL!!!)
**Use rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball to remove the stamped date. (OPTIONAL!!!)
**Print the Snowman kisses poem either on cardstock or computer paper and adhere it to the Tic Tac box.
**Adhere the Tic Tac box to the cover with a glue dot, or double sided adhesive.
Here is the poem to include - I just printed it out on cardstock and stuck it to the Tic Tac box.
