Candy Bar Favors with Doodlebug Papers!

Hey everyone!!! Nice to see you!!! I took a little unintended break the past week or so and just relaxed. My creative mojo has not been at peak form and I have just been super tired. So I gave myself a break. I didn't mean to, it just happened, and that's okay. Sometimes the ideas just stop flowing for a while and I've learned over the years not to force it, but to just rest my brain. I did some organizing and we went to the movies (yay!) and I got some other business things taken care of. How are you? I hope you had a nice long weekend! We had 100+ degree temps here and dang it, it's Summer! Life seems to be slowly getting back to a little bit of normal and it is bringing me relief to my anxiety. I'm grateful to be able to move about more and do things that we enjoy. I hope it's the same for you where you are!! Tip – go see Cruella at the theater! It was AMAZING! 

My project for today is featuring Doodlebug supplies and Jaded Blossom dies! It's my turn on the Doodlebug Blog today and this project is shared over there too. If you have time – please head over there and leave some love for all the design teams' projects. They are amazing!! My project today again features the Fairy Garden Collection (my final project with this collection)….

I made candy bar party favors! They were so easy and so fun to make. Perfect for Treat Bags or Favors, or for a birthday, graduation, or even a shower… I made them to hand out to my friends! We all could use some candy right?? Oh! That makes me think of Halloween ideas!  I love the Hershey's Dark Bars, but any regular size flat bar will fit into the die. It would be easy to tape a gift card onto the candy first, or insert some money, depending on the occasion. Here are my four candy bar favors! Lots of pictures in this post because I want you to see everything! 🙂

 

My signature thing is details….I love adding all the little details to my projects! Here I used Doodlebug Chunky Twine and glued on Sprinkles – here a rainbow – to finish off the twine bow.

 

I love that the candy bar wrapper/slider die has a decorative edge!! I used hearts and rainbows and flowers!! These are the 12×12 papers from the Fairy Garden Collection. 

 

I used the Doodlebug Borders and Edges Dies to make a row of hearts on all the candy wrappers!!

 

Adorable stickers to decorate the front of the candies….oh and some doilies too!!

 

Here is the Candy Bar Slider Die! You die cut two pieces and glue or tape them together. SO EASY!!! It also has a stitched edge piece to make the front. You could decorate this in a million different ways! The dies are from Jaded Blossom and they cut like a dream.

 

 

Once your die cuts are assembled, just slide the candy inside. Yep – no gluing or measuring – just pop it inside! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Makes me want to have a party!!! LOL. Oh yes, I'm ready to party after the past year!
