Recently I’ve been sharing projects that are great for small gifts – perfect for people you want to give just a little something to. The projects are inexpensive items dressed up with papercrafting products. This one is a can of honey roasted cashews. Or you could eat the cashews and use the empty container for another small gift – cookies maybe?
Here’s what I made:
Here’s how I did it:
The can came with a black lid, which prompted my choice of colors. I cut a piece of Pop of Pink Designer Series paper (white with black dots) to fit around the can and adhered it with Fast Fuse.
On a piece of Basic Black card stock, I heat embossed in gold a sentiment from the You’re So Sweet stamp set. I cut it out with Paper Snips and glued it to the DSP. I wrapped a couple of rubber bands around it until the glue dried.
For the final touch, I cut a piece of Gold Foil Sheet with the Layering Circles Framelits and adhered it to the lid with Fast Fuse.
Here’s what I used:





You have a great eye for making something beautiful out of something so plain. Much more fun than just putting the can in a bag. 🙂
