Title: Candy Topped Love
Hostess: Sarah (SeattleStamper) Keyword: FEB09VSN10 Day/Date: Saturday January 17, 2009 Time: 09:00 PM (EST)
One of my favorite things to hand out to friends and family on any holiday is a little candy filled bag topped with a cute themed topper. Sure they like the candy but the topper is what they love to see and keeps this treat new and fun each time.
Your challenge is to create a topper for a bag of candy. This can be any size and even just the topper if you don't have candy and/or a cello bag handy, it can always be added later.
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON (SUNDAY, JANUARY 18th
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in the chat thread just in case the gallery is being testy.
I love any challenge that involves candy! Thanks, Sarah!
LOL, now that you mention it Kathrine I bet thats why I thought of it! And making these gives me an excuse to always have a little stash of candy on hand

Love the samples!!! I've never seen pink cany corn before!! I can't wait to make this one... and not just because it involves 'testing' the candy!!! LOL
I agree,the topper is what catches people's eye right away!! Like the jacket of a book...If I like the jacket I open the book...and I like your 'jacket'!

I never thought of it like that but you're so right! I mean why else would I open a bag of candy corn? Presentation it everything!

What a fun idea! I don't think I have any candy (shocking, I know!) But I certainly have cello bags, so I will get to working on this as soon as I grab a snack!

Thanks for a great challenge!!
I was at the grocery store! :-) Taste just like the orange kind! ;-)
Is finished making my topper. I will have to buy some more Hershey's Kisses to go under the bag. Think if I hide the bag, it will last until Valentine's Day???

Currently designing for some great companies!!!
DH has some green and red peanut m&m's laying around from Christmas, so I raided them and took the red one's out. I better be careful, you know what they say about the green one's ;)
Ok, I struggled with the ribbon for the most of my allotted 45 mins....yikes...but it's done and I like it!! I had just brought home the ribbon from work on Friday...it was going to be thrown out....I knew I'd have to use it during VSN so here it is!!
