Different jars are different sizes; your wrap may need to be
adjusted to fit. This project uses a quart mason jar that is
about 6 ½” tall and 3 ½” wide.
Add Sticky Strip to both 3” ends of the 3” x 12” Holiday Happenings DSP.
Remove backing from Sticky Strip. Wrap DSP around the jar
starting with one end at the back of the jar and wrapping the
other end around until it meets or overlaps the first end.
Tie the 20” piece of Chocolate Chip ribbon around
the jar.
Step 3
Use the Coluzzle Cutting system to cut a 2 3/8” circle from
the 3” x 3” Rose Red card stock. This will use the 4th circle
guide from the center.
Trim tabs to finish cutting circle.
Use the 1 ¾” Circle Punch to punch a 2 ½” x 2 ½” scrap of
Chocolate Chip card stock.
Use the 1 ¼” Circle Punch to punch a 2” x 2” scrap of Regal
Rose card stock.
Stamp the “dessert” or other category image on scrap 2” x 2”
Confetti White card stock using Regal Rose ink.
Color in using a Blender pen and Regal Rose ink.
Use 1” Circle Punch to punch out image.
Sponge edge of 1” Confetti White circle using Chocolate Chip ink
and a Stamping Sponge.
Step 4
Use SNAIL to layer the 1” Confetti White circle, 1 ¼” Regal Rose
circle and the 1 ¾” Chocolate Chip circle.
Stamp the “from the kitchen of:” image on a 2” x 3” scrap of
Regal Rose card stock using Basic Black ink.
Use the Round Tab Punch to punch out the image.
Fold tab in half and use SNAIL to adhere it to the edge of the
2 3/8” Rose Red circle.
Use SNAIL to adhere layered circles onto 2 3/8” Rose Red
circle.
Add two pieces of Sticky Strip about 1 ½” each to the back of
the Rose Red circle.
Remove Sticky Strip backing and adhere circle onto jar lid.
Step 5
Stamp “yum scale” image in Basic Black ink on a 2” x 3”
Rose Red card stock.
Punch out image with Rounded Tab Punch.
Fold tab in half and gently bend tab sideways to round it.
Use SNAIL to adhere tab to the top edge of the DSP wrapper
on the front of the jar.
Use Blender Pen and Rose Red ink to fill in stars on the
“yum scale” or leave it blank for the recipient to fill in.
This versatile and useful jar is ready to give to your Valentine.
Slip a recipe card under the ribbon on the back side of the
jar and you have a thoughtful and delicious gift to give…if
you can resist making it for yourself!
Or fill the jar with homemade goodies like candy, roasted
nuts or cocoa mix. Or think outside the jar and fill it with
small gifts like toys, stamps, jewelry or a gift card to a
gourmet cooking store or a dinner out!

Gosh, I love this wheel. I hope it never, ever becomes retired. I get so much use out of it every year. This year my Holiday theme is ‘Snowflakes’ – Ta Da! I used this roller on my card envelopes, gift bags, gift boxes, table runner, napkins and I’m sure I’ll think of more. What a sensational value. My favorite color with it – Bashful Blue.
