Candy Airplane














Here's a gift I did for a friend. I just found out from his wife that his birthday had passed . He loves Airplanes so I went on looking splitcoaststampers for airplane cards so I could at least make him a belated birthday card. I came across MCCFipps
gallery on splitcoaststampers with this idea. I didn't have any airplane stamps so I thought this would work nicely. I had to substitute the one stick of gum for a larger pack and the smarties base for a lifesavers pack. I used rubber bands to hold the gum and the lifesavers together. I also used some individual wrapped lifesavers for the wheels.


My recipe is:
Stamps: alphabits (retired from stampin up) , small sayings,

Paper: Designer paper outlaw stampin up', chocolate chip,
Ink: Brown stazon, computer ink,

accessories: both tag punches, window punch for the propeller, 1/4 inch circle punch, 1/2 inch circle punch, build a brad, brown gingham ribbon(non su) pop up glue dots and mini gluedots, xyron for attaching the ribbon, rubberbands, lifesavors, gum,

Technique: Airplaine

Thanks for stopping by: Terry

  1. Now, I had admired the smartie plane a while back...

    But I do like this "bigger and sweeter" candy...feels more like a gift with full packs of candy!

    Way to go and "make it your own."
