Designer Cone

I am so excited to share this sample with you today!  Because, I got my very own "watermark"!  It is the image on my picture with my name and copyright information.  It is much easier and nicer than having the typed information there.  Let me know if you are interested in your own watermark and I will hook you up with the gal that created mine, Beth Silaika!  Thanks Beth if you are out there! 

Now, about the project!  I saw this project at convention this year and had to make them.  They are quick, cute and fun!  All you need is a 6x6 piece of Designer Paper, punch the out one corner with a circle punch, about 1/4 of the circle.  This will make it easier for the cone to come together.  Form your cone and adhere with sticky strip.  The cute tag is from the Tagger's Dozen stamp set.  I made the scallops with the slit punch and the Crop-a-Dile (which not only sets eyelets it dry embossed those cute little circles! 

HERE'S A TIP!  Make your own shred with your paper scraps and a crimper.  Cut your scraps into long, thin strips and the crimp.  Once you have a hand full crinkle and roll them up into a ball, add this to your cone!  What a cute and fun holder for a little gift, chocolate always works.  I thought this would be fun party favors for a wedding shower, baby shower or even a birthday party, just change up your DSP (designer paper). 

If you love DSP ask me how you can get a pack free in November!
