What a great family Christmas we had yesterday! Today we are all still in our jammies with NO agenda! It's perfect! I love this time of year!
So, for our dinner last night I had made table favours for all the adults. I made a batch of bark and packaged them all up in the medium cello bags. Then I put a little gift card holder on the back of the package for a Tim Hortons gift card! I was really happy with the final look of the project.
Here is the bark recipe:
4 cups of white chocolate chips
about 24 crushed vanilla oreos (YUMMY!)
Melt the chocolate in a double broiler, stir in the crushed cookies, then pour out onto a tray of wax paper. Flatten it, let it cool (you can put it in the fridge to speed up the process). Once set, break up the bark into bite sized pieces and bag! It's that easy!!!!
As for the packages, they took a little longer and were a bit more work! The Kraft cardstock is 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 and 6. The header was done using the Top Notes Die. The video shows you how to assemble it all together. Hope you like it!
Here is the video:
Thank you for the great idea. I have just finished a hot chocolate holder.
