Hi...I'm back...I know I promised a gift card holder last time, but I got sidetracked making some mini pointsettias (look closely, they're really lollipops!!):
Here's what you need...2 images of the large pointsettia from the MC-8 cling set (Christmas Flowers). Cut one complete pointsettia and one of just the inner part of the pointsettia (see photo, below). Put a foam dot on the larger flower and mount the smaller flower on top. Use a glue dot to adhere the pointsettia to the lollipop and tie a ribbon. I used a small bathroom cup for the "flower pot"...plus a piece of styrofoam, cut to fit the cup:
Glue the styrofoam to the inside bottom of the cup. Stick your pointsettia lollipops into the styrofoam...then put a strip of double stick tape close to the top of the cup (this tape will keep the foil wrap in place):
Cut a square of foil tissue and wrap around the cup...put another strip of double stick tape around the foil wrap and use that tape to hold the ribbon in place (I also added some crinkled shred to cover the styrofoam base):
Or...they're pretty cute to give away individually too:
I'll get crackin' on finishing up that gift card project...be back soon!!!
