A gift for the one you love

Today, I have a really quick and easy valentines gift to show you.  They are so simple, you can whip them up in no time, and give them to all your loved ones, filled with their favorite treats this valentines day.

Valentines gift by Karen Shady

Materials used: Love notes collection, specialty paper-admirer (PS132), patterned paper-adore (P606), foil sticker embellishment pack (EM944) rub ons (RB889)

other: cricut, martha stewart punch, string, tag, double sided tape.


You simply take a large scalloped circle ( I cut mine on my cricut, but you could also just use a plain circle shape, using a plate, or saucepan lid as a template) Cut the cirle in half, you need 1 half for each cone. Fold the half sheet into a cone shape, and attach at the back with double sided tape. Then simply decorate it as you desire, and fill it with your loved ones favorite treat.

A big thankyou to my son Jack for being a fabulous model :)

I don’t have a cricut so I would just be cutting it from hand.
