Easter on my mind!

Hello again friends,

Today I am sharing a cute lollipop holder from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons called 'Stitched Heart Lollipop Holder ' - as you might know I'm a big fan and love their cute and gorgeous files. I changed the Love theme to Easter for this project.

I added a sweet little chick to the front of this holder - this Chick in Egg is from Miss Kate Cuttables (they offer a freebie file every day then it usually moves into the $0.50 section - still a bargain!!).

I used foam dots to raise the chick on the holder - I love him, he's super cute! What do you think? The paper I used had the yellow pattern on one side so looked plain when I added the lollipops and folded it so I cut out some Easter/Spring patterned paper and glued that to the inside.
I found these sweet little carrot and egg lollipops at the Dollar store and thought they'd be perfect for this little project - they just fitted in the holder :-)
These would be great for classroom treats or for Easter Egg Hunting street parties!

The glue I used for this project were my ATG gun and Tombow Multi liquid glue. I'm not a big fan of my ATG gun, I've tried it a few times but I think I've put it together incorrectly lol - can anyone suggest a tutorial for me!?!

Thank you for visiting today.
Happy Crafting!

  4. These are super fun!!! That chick is adorable. Hey if you use your atg gun and you stick things together wrong, just hit it a few seconds with your heat gun and it will come apart very easily! If you still have the box the ATG gun came it-it has a diagram to show how to put the tape in. Also if you google Scotch ATG they have a video! Good luck!

    1. Thanks Sue - I appreciate the advise on the ATG gun, I do have the box and perhaps I'm having a silly moment but I'm sure I'm following the directions ... LOL! I think I'll look up a video as you suggested - that will probably help me better :-)
