Alright, our Easter chick is all ready, and now we just have to write 'Happy Easter'.
And what I like to use for this is called a Stamp a ma jig. This helps line up all your
words so they're nice and even. There's two sides to the Stamp a ma jig classic. There's
a soft, smooth side and then on the other side, it's a kind of a rougher side. We're
going to be using the soft, smooth side for the classic ink pads. You would use the rough
side for your craft inks, and I'll show you that later. So, the first thing you do is
put the handle in the corner, you ink up your stamp pad, and you go ahead and butt it right
to the corner, and stamp, and there you have the word, Happy Easter. And this helps us
because now I'm going to just take that, using my grid paper and placing this where I want
the Happy Easter to be. Next thing I need to do, is just again place the handle into
the corner of the plastic sheet, pull it away, re-stamp my ink, now when I place it and stamp,
it's exactly where I want it to be, it's lined up and it's perfect. So now let's go ahead
and attach this with a little snail adhesive to the Pretty in Pink topper. And again, I
like to use my grid paper because this helps me keep everything lined up. So I'm going
to go down two squares on that side, down two squares on that side, and go ahead and
press it down. Now here comes the fun part, you take your Peeps or whatever candy that
you like, go ahead and fill up your cello bag, and I would go ahead and put two in there,
because my husband loves Peeps, fold your bag down, place your finished topper on top,
to get it to where you want it to be, take your 1/16th punch, punch in about an inch
on one side. If you'll take one of your brads, poke it through, and fix it on the back, and
then just do the same thing on the other side, go in about an inch, you're going to try to
make them even the best you can, remember these are a fun treat, they don't have to
be perfect, and just go ahead and pull this back, and there is your completed treat topper.
These make good gifts for your coworkers. These are fun to put at the table, fun to
give to the children, you can fill them with any kind of Easter candy that you like. I
hope you have fun making these.
