The Peacock is Back!





I created this cocoa box for our upcoming Stamp Camp this month. It is going to be up for grabs at our Silent Auction table. The peacock was created using the scallop circle dies, owl punch, itty bitty punches, & the 3/4" circle punch. I shaded the edges of the peacock's feathers using the sponge dauber and of course added lots of rhinestones! The dimensions for the cocoa box can be found here. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Cocoa Holder Instructions...

Due to many requests, here are the instructions for the Cocoa Holder. Enjoy...

You will need the following:
(2) 9-1/2" x 7" card stock (box bottom)
(1) 6" x 7" DSP (box cover)

Box Cover:
Score the 6" x 7" DSP at 15/16" on all sides. Fold on the score lines. Cut slits on the dotted lines and adhere together to form the box cover.



Box Bottom:
1. Score the two 9-1//2" x 7" card stocks at 1/2" and 4-1/2" on the 9-1/2" side. Turn the card stock and score it at 3" on the 7" side. Fold on the score lines. Cut on the dotted lines. On one of the card stock, use the paper cutter to cut out the gray rectangle at 1/4" from the sides and bottom. Cut out the rectangle 1" high. Use the 3/4" circle punch to cut out the half circle.



2. Attach the two card stocks together by the 1/2" tab.



3. Assemble the box using sticky strip. Do the remaining 1/2" tab first and then the bottom flaps.

4. When you are done, decorate as desired and fill with cocoa packets. Have fun!



Thanks for stopping by. I hope that you will find these instructions useful.

Cocoa & Tea Holders...



Cocoa Holders... (uses the stamp set Pun Fun)



Tea Holders...

Here are some pictures of the items I made to sell at our recent Stamp Camp. I got the dimensions for the tea holders from Jane's blog... thanks Jane!

Although I love the idea of these tea holders, I'm not much of a tea drinker so I decided to create some cocoa holders instead. Luckily, everyone else liked them too and they sold out quickly! Now I need to get to work on making more for gifts. Thanks for stopping by and visiting my blog!
