2016 is right around the corner, which means it’s time to party–and we have
the perfect party favors you can make for your guests! They’ll even complement
the
Kaleidoscope
party décor we shared a couple of weeks ago. Pull out your Cricut
®
and Kaleidoscope paper packet for this one, and get ready to create these lil’
show-stoppers:
These will be the life of the party even before they’re opened! First, pick
your favorite Kaleidoscope paper design. Bright colors and festive designs make
Kaleidoscope an easy choice for this type of project.
Next, cut your Cricut
® shape out of your chosen paper using the
Artiste cartridge. The Artiste cartridge also comes with a handy instructional
booklet that will show you how to fold it into its 3D shape!
Last, bling it up! Add some sparkle with glitter paper, shimmer trim, and sparkly
embellishments!
As fun as these popper-like favors look on the outside, you can make them
even MORE fun by putting surprises inside before sealing them shut. When your
guests are ready, they can rip open an end to find a special treat—maybe a few
pieces of candy, a “fortune” for the new year, or even a little toy! Just like
that, you’ve got a fun, unique gift everyone will enjoy!
To finish off your popper, we’ve got an extra fun idea— confetti! Pull out
your triangle border punch, and cut out pieces of Kaleidoscope paper, glitter
paper, cardstock, or all of the above! The hole in each end of the popper is
big enough that you can insert the confetti even after assembling the popper.
Pop on over to our
Kaleidoscope
party décor post to finish off your party plans, and enjoy creating these
paper poppers!
