Gum, Anyone?

What an exciting challenge! MFT opened up a challenge for the opportunity to be a guest designer for March. The challenge's theme is "I Want Candy" suggesting a creation of a 3D project involving candy.

I was bummed out a few days ago when I forgot to use the sentiment "I Chews Ewe" on my students' Valentines gum holders, so here was my chance! I love how it turned out!!

I created the 'wrapper' out of Cameo Coral. Then I placed a Chocolate Chip layer on the top (I stamped 'Baa' all over it, but it's difficult to see) and tied a ribbon (Michaels) to one end. To the ribbon, I attached the sentiment that I printed off the computer (font - Joyful Juliana) and cut out using my word window punch. I cut the circle and scalloped circle using my Cricut and embellished the sheep with Liquid Applique. I hole punched the gum and added ribbon as a pull.
