Valentines Treat

Here's the other make and take from my Open House. I CASED the idea from Wanda's blog which you can find here: http://www.starlightstamper.com/2008/01/dum-dum-sucker-tutorial.html. Wanda always has great ideas! This is a little cover for a lollipop.





Supplies:

Scraps of white, Real Red and Regal Rose cardstock for the Happy Valentines Day tag and the punched circles and scallops attached at the top of the lollipop stick

Scallop, 1 3/8"circle, 1 1/4" circle, 1/16"circle and small and large tag punches
