Warm Valentine Treats for a Cold Winter's Day!


Looking for a cute Valentine treat for those you love?  How about some hot chocolate and a peppermint stick?  Yes, I realize it's really a Christmas candy cane in disguise - but it was all I could find at the time!  And it's RED.  I think it will do the job!


We made these at my CLOclub class last week.  They went together pretty quickly!  The pink layer on the left was diecut and embossed, then sanded - love that Core-dinations paper with the lighter core!  A strip of red Glimmer Paper was added for a little pizzazz.  The Designer Series Paper was punched, and the hearts were stamped and diecut with Framelits - then topped off with a pearl.  The pocket was double punched on the right, ribbon threaded through to create a loop for the peppermint stick, and the bow holds it securely in place.  In goes the hot chocolate packet and you have a tasty treat for guys and gals alike!



All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted
