Rolo Pencil Favors


Just had to share some favors I created after seeing a photo on Pinterest. I went to YouTube to search for a video and found this one that gives excellent directions. We are having a going away party for a co-worker who happens to be a teacher and is leaving us this week to take a new teaching position.  With a different sentiment, these would make a great back to school gift for your child's teacher.

STAMPS: Friendly Phrases (Verve)
PAPER: Summer Sun (SU), Pretty in Pink (SU)
ACCESSORIES: Postage edge decorative scissors, 1" circle punch (SU), Scor-Buddy, Tin foil, Rolo candy, Hershey's kiss.

I used 1/4" Scor-tape to adhere the yellow CS; Glue dots were used to hold the pink "eraser" pieces and Quick Dry adhesive was used to hold the tin foil border in place.  The video suggests using a glue gun, but I tend to make a stringy mess when I use hot glue on paper.  Thanks for stopping by!
