His & Hers Treats!
Here’s a very quick idea for a sweet treat. Turn your Frappachino bottles into delightful packaging for a quick gift or treat!
Today’s WT197 challenge at SCS is to create a gift that is “quick”. The truth is, I spent no more than 15 minutes in actual ‘creation’ time. More time was spent deciding on the presentation & papers, etc. than creating. Once you’ve got your preferred design, it’s ready, set, go!
The His and Hers were stamped with Versamark ink, then embossed with Silver Embossing Tinsel. Then a quick punch with a small oval, and they’re ready to slip into a hardware oval and tie around the bottle! Done!

The lids are covered with one of my favorite snowflake images, again embossed with silver embossing tinsel, punched and layered on a Nesties scallop circle. And that metallic ribbon around the lid? It’s perfect stuck in place with 1/8″ Scor-Tape. Never fear, it’s staying in place.
.
The most time-consuming part was trying to tie the ribbons at similar lengths for each bottle. A glue dot holds the bow in place on the back of the bottle, and these are ready to give or to “enjoy“!

The Stamp Castle should give you a rebate for all the people who are going there to shop. I love what you make with JustRite, so I need to go look. I can’t shop right now, but I can always look!
Love your idea! I wonder if I could find some bottles like those around here.
