These make a great gift or a centerpiece. Change the color scheme for a Baby
Shower, birthday, or Halloween party. I am using Bamboo skewers with York Peppermint patties and Hershey nuggets to create my bouquet. |
||||
|
|
The Bamboo skewers easily poke into the Peppermint patties. | |||
 |
The special 20th anniversary die that Stampin' Up! carries for the Big Shot
fits perfectly over the patty. I have attached the cardstock with mini glue
dots. You could also use sticky strip.

 |
The Scallop punch, paired with the Birds & Blooms Sizzlit Die and a clear button also decorates the Peppermint patty beautifully. | |||
 |
Instruction 4 | |||
 |
To decorate the Hershey nuggets, cut a strip of cardstock 1" x 3". Place some sticky strip on the candy and then wrap the cardstock around. | |||
 |
Place another piece of sticky strip to secure the ends of the cardstock. The Bamboo skewer will also poke into the nugget. |
|||
 |
Use the small scallop from the Birds & Blooms Sizzlit Die combined with the stamp set Small Flowers to complete the nugget fronts. | |||
 |
I purchase an inexpensive flower pot from a Craft Store to use as the base for my bouquet. I placed a piece of floral foam into the bottom of the pot to secure the skewers. | |||
 |
I decorated my pot using ribbon and Designer Series Paper. I used wood glue to attach the paper to the terra cotta pot. | |||
 |
To have different height bamboo skewers, I cut them with hedge trimmers. | |||
| Here is the finished bouquet. | ||||
