I started off by buying some clear cupcake boxes from a baking store, but had to dress them up a bit as they were pretty bland. But with a few crafting products it was quick and easy to do. I used a circle stamp that I made myself to stamp images onto the clear plastic box.<\/p>\n

For my project I used an old dry metallic silver StazOn ink pad, and re-inked it with Grey StazOn refill ink to stamp with. The interesting thing is that the grey mixed with some of the silver and created the most amazing effect – perfect for any festive celebration. <\/p>\n

How to make your stamp<\/h3>\n

\nUse some craft foam and a circle die-cut and cut a circle out of the foam using your Cuttlebug machine. Then adhere the foam stamp with a strip of double sided tape onto an acrylic block. Ink the stamp with StazOn ink and stamp onto your plastic repeatedly until the surface is covered with the design.<\/p>\n
