Let's Talk about LIPS......

Today was a LONG day in the craft room making Lip Balm holders!  I had hoped my contraband purchase would make these go together FAST, but not so much!  They do look more polished and I can now see the FLAVOR of the Lip Balm!  I used a mix of OLD and NEW.  Pool Party card stock, Glimmer Paper and a SNOWMAN!!  Snowman Season Bundle, LOVE this PUNCH!!

You can get 5 holders from a sheet of card stock.  Cut 8 1/2 X 2.  Actually a smidge less than 2 inches so you can slide your paper into the punch.  Score your entire sheet of cardstock FIRST at 4 1/4 inches.  Punch both ends using the Tag Topper punch and fold in half.

Then Lots of Big Shot work and getting the Plastic to stick....UGH, but after a few...... things did get routine.  Here is what 30 look like!  Ready to hang on my Tree at the Craft Fair this Saturday.  I'm hoping folks will think these are GREAT Stocking Stuffers!

BlueBerry Bushel card stock and the Perfectly Plaid Bundle with Wrapped in Plaid Paper.  I tried to match the Paper to the Color of the Lip Balms.  Pepsi is not my thing, but sure looks adorable with this Blue paper!

More of the Snowman Bundle with Candy Cane Chapstick.

Perfectly Plaid Bundle with a different Tree.  This TREE Punch made this part easy!!  Bundles with a PUNCH are a GREAT VALUE!!!

And my FAVORITE for LAST!  Who loves Coca Cola?  And I ordered the Still Scenes Snow Globe Bundle and had no idea until today that there are POLAR BEAR Dies!!  SO this is the CUTEST thing ever!!  I used the cut out pieces for the Tags and Frames.  I love a project with minimal waste!
