I Chews Ewe!

Here's a photo of the Trident Gum Holders I'm going to give to my students for Valentines' treats. I wanted to use the sentiment "I Chews Ewe," but I didn't remember until I had half of them done. No biggie - Wool You Be Mine? is equally adorable!

I used liquid applique on the sheep to make them puffy. I kept playing around with adding ribbon. I wasn't happy with anything I tried, and I figured the kids wouldn't care anyway. With new health standards, figuring out treat options has been tricky. The sugar-free gum will have them tickled pink!

Ingredients:
Stamps - MFT Punny Farm
Paper - SU Groovy Guava, Ruby Red, Very Vanilla
Ink - Basic Black, Groovy Guava, Ruby Red
Accessories - Word Window Punch, Cricut (Georges & Basic Shapes), Liquid Applique, Prismacolor Black Watercolor Pencil

There's a great tutorial on creating Trident gum holders on Angie's blog -
