Whether you make the treats homemade or buy them in the store, the receiver of this Holiday treat will love the decorative jar it comes in! During Christmas and birthdays try making this fun food packaging idea for your sweet treats!
You can dress up any household item with stamps. This jar didn’t look like much when I started, but with a little gold powder it pops. Try taking something you use every day and dressing it up as a gift.

HELPFUL TIP: To emboss the edges of the snowflakes I rolled the edges in the ink and then rolled them in the powder and heat set them. To add color to each of the images I colored on the embossed part and drug the ink with a make-up sponge. You can also color on the sponge and drag it that way for a darker look.
