I got the inspiration for this treat from gal pal, Rochelle's, April 24th post of Spice Jar Gifts, click HERE to check out. Since I do not have SU's Tart & Tangy stamp set yet, I decided to use my strawberry stamp set from Papertrey, that I just love!
I used a plastic container, that I buy in bulk of 6 from Oriental Trade and are similar to Rochelle's spice jars, and filled with strawberry candies. I then used a Marvy circle scallop punch for the red cardstock and adhered it to the lid. I stamped the strawberry image onto white cardstock before punching out with a circle Whale of a Punch, and adhered it on top of the red, as well. Lastly, I tied sheer red dotted Offray ribbon around the neck.
I went and visited an dear friend of mine yesterday, that I had not seen in awhile, and took her this treat. I added a little note that said, "Love You Berry Much". It was so good to see her, and she was tickled to get a surprise treat, too!

JoAnna, how cute is your jar. I love the strawberry stamp and the strawberry candy. Super cute. I have one jar left out of the four. Why didn't I do the strawberry in the set? Man, I am a dork. I am so going to do the strawberry. Thanks for waking me up. LOL
P.S. The link to my blog doesn't work. It says blop spot dot com not blog spot dot com. LOL
What a cute idea! I just picked up a set of 4 of these at Ikea and have both your and Rochelle's ideas have given me lots of motivation! Thanks!
