I made this gift basket for a fellow stamping friend's birthday. I found Cocoa and Coffee/Cocoa in cute cans at Ross, I also found the note pad, basket, and coffee topping/sprinkle stuff at Ross. Another Friend added the Great Mocha-scented candle, my daughter had the great idea of using pink marshmallows (from a bag of colored minis), and I bought the choc. covered espresso beans at Wal-Mart. I fill the basket with pink and brown paper shreds. I also used the Daisy punch and the new spring triple flower punch for the Styrofoam ball... I sure hope she likes it! It was soo much fun to make!
This picture shows how I put the directions on the front of the can (computer printed) underneath the sliding cup! The one with marshmallows is the cocoa and the one with coffee beans is the Coffee flavored Cocoa.

Ross - Dress For Less. I don't really know what they would have in your area that is similar...there is also a TJ Max. It is a store that carries discounted items - like name-brand stuff for way less $$$. It is not a craft store. They usually have Clothing, Shoes, bath items, and housewares. I find all sorts of goodies there. I'm sorry that I do not know of an equivalent store in your area.
