What's Christmas without Santa? Well, I got a Santa candy wrapper for you! I've seen the idea of Santa's face with embossing beard as a cello bag topper all over Stampin' Connection. So, I thought I use it on a candy bar. This is another way to use the Ornament Punch that I promised to show you and this is my husband's favorite candy wrapper by far! Men, they always wonder why we dress up our candies!
He's quite fancy with all the glimmer paper, isn't it? For those of you who visit my blog, thank you! I got a bonus for you - a funny looking Santa! :) I was working on the Tag 'til Christmas stamp set and wanted to use the Santa's suit for a 3-D gift. At the end, I decided not to use it because it looks like a wanna-be-Santa elf! Anyhow, I want to share with you my process because it's still cute!
