What You Will Need

  • "Hope" Jumbo stamp wheel designed by Jen Goode for Rollagraph® by Clearsnap optional
  • BCA Printables also from Jen Goode
  • ColorBox Crafter's Inkpad in Sweet Pea
  • pink glitter paper
  • pink glitter ribbon
  • pink bakers twine
  • Wide pink ribbon
  • White cardstock
  • Hot Glue
  • Scoring board
  • Scissors
  • Paper cutter
  • Sizzix and circle dies

Instructions

  • I started with the fabulous Rollagraph stamp and my pink ink.  I used the stamp over an entire sheet of white cardstock.  I just rolled the stamp on the ink pad then rolled it onto my paper.
  • I then cut the paper into four equal pieces lengthwise and scored the paper every 1/2 inch using a scoring board.
  • I cut circles from both the printables supplied by Jen and the pink glitter paper.  Speaking of the printables by Jen, she has even more printables for BCA month for you so don't miss those.  I used my Sizzix to cut the circles but you can use any method you have available.
  • Then fold your paper on each scoreline.  Glue together the ends of each of the four pieces of paper to make one long strip.
  • Then glue together the ends of the long strip to make a circle.
  • Apply hot glue to the center of the circle and pull in to make a medallion.  Add the centerpieces to the medallion to secure.
  • Lets work on the lid for our jar now.  Again I cut a circle out of the pink glitter paper and the printables from Jen.
  • I used hot glue to secure those circles to the top and some pink glitter ribbon around the outside of the band.
  • Now lets put this gift together.  Start with a wide pink ribbon around the center of the jar and secure with hot glue.
  • Attach your paper medallion to the front of your gift using hot glue.  Add some fabulous pampering supplies to the inside and use pink tissue paper to fill.  You could also fill with candy or cookies if you know that the recipient will enjoy them.
  • Add your lid to the top.  I also used a piece of pink baker's twine to add a printable tag from Jen to the top.  You can write who your gift is to and from on this tag.
