SU!P FRIENDS! I always like to make little favors for the guests at my events, or sometimes I put them in with their orders as a thank-you. When I saw the adorable Gumball Greetings Bundle in the new Jan-June 2022 Mini Catalog I couldn't wait to get started!
I paired the cute little gumball machine with the Sweet Little Boxes, also found in the new Mini. They are so quick & easy to put together--just fold, peel the adhesive and stick! They hold 2 Valentine Ghiradelli chocolates perfectly!
The little gumball machines take a little longer to make, but they're so worth it! I cut a piece of DSP the size of the box top and used the Gumball Machine Dies to cut out the dome shape--lining the top of the die to the top edge of the DSP. I then peeled the backing off of the adhesive strip on top of one of the Gumball Machine Shaker Domes. I centered it into the hole in the DSP and adhered. I filled the dome with about 3 pinches of the Frosted Beads, pulled the backing off the bottom adhesive, and placed the DSP die-cut back where it had been cut out, and then adhered the whole dome piece to the top of the box.
I then cut out the machine base and top from Real Red Cardstock and adhered the trim pieces on top with tiny drops of Liquid Tombow. I cut the silver pieces from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack that carries over from the Holiday Mini. I finished it off by adding some Frosted Beads with tiny drops of Liquid Tombow.
