I'm going to a BBQ this weekend and have decided to use this image to create a gift to take with me (and some cheesecake too!). This is my first effort. I got these scrummy Dandelion and Burdock Homemade Sugar Pips which ar amazing. I used SU Perfect Plum which matched the sweets well. Made a quick tag with some punches and attached it with ribbon. EASY. But still effective. Looks great IRL. I got the jars from IKEA a long time ago and think I may need to get some more before Christmas! I think that the project is very clean and simple - and so fits in with Just Cute Bears' Clean and Simple Challenge. I know it's not a card but I don't think it can get any easier than two punched shapesstuck together and tied with a ribbon.
If you like this image, or indeed any of the other Bugaboo images, make sure you visit the shop as there is a 50% off sale going on right now - but it ends on Saturday so get shopping quick! Click HERE to visit the shop.
Off now to finish off the jar of sweets - guess they won't be a gift on Saturday then!

This looks fab Paul, and as you say, a great idea for Christmas! This image is super for summer bbqs and would have been a lovely gift, if you hadn't eaten the sweets! :o) Love the way your punches fit with each other - none of mine seem to be the right size! I must get sorted and find some new ones.

Hi Paul, this is a great little thank you gift! Easy yes, but cute!!!
Oh I have some of these jars, umm! off to see what I can do with them. Thanks for the inspiration.
Oh, why did I have to use purple the same week that you did? Your project is so much cuter than mine! I love that you create so many ABCs - The world NEEDS more candy jars, I say! ;) MWAH!
Oh I love this jar of sweets Paul ! It's such a brilliant idea ! Got to go to Ikea now ! I have just played with the same digi for Catch the Bug challenge ! Great minds... Smiles from Catherine
Very cute, Paul! Your host or hostess is going to be very pleased.
Hi Honey, Thanks for your comment today. I have only tried Freddies in the treat holder, cos thats what I had lying around, but you could vary the length to suit the treat I suppose. Hugs SArah B X
