Cupcake Thanks Candy Sticks...{Challenge Project}

Good Morning everyone! 
I am popping in with a non DT related project, but with an entry for a few challenges!
It has been a while since I played along with any so I thought I would share an order I just completed that happened to fit into a few I love to play along with.
A friend of mine contacted me looking for some birthday party favors. She wanted some candy sticks, purple~her daughters favorite color~ a birthday theme with a thank you message so these are what I created.
Hope you like them!
Candy sticks are so fun to make! Decorating the tags to fit the theme, have just endless possibilities. For my tags, I used some freebie images I got from Paper Smooches (links down below) and I designed them to fit inside my circle and scallop die cut~ all using my Silhouette Designer Studio.
Once I had the design in place, I printed and cut the shapes, assembled the tag and then added diamond stickles to the frosting and cotton candy stickles to the cherries.
Once they were all dry, I attached them to my skinny candy bags (already filled with white and purple candy jewels) with some Grape Fizz Trendy Twine.

Supplies Used:
Purple, white cardstock
diamond stickles
cotton candy stickles

 And there are my treats. I am sure hoping my friend and the birthday girl love these!!!
That is all I have to share for today. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT day!!

    Hi Jessica,

    Those came out GREAT!!! :) I know the birthday girl will love them!

    If you don't mind my asking, how much do you charge for something like that? I get a lot of requests, but it is awkward coming up with a price for a friend (or even an acquaintance).

    Thank you for sharing your amazing creations!

    Crafty hugs,

    Jennifer

    I totally love them!!! And your friend and her daughter are sure to adore them too!!! I bet they are thankful to have a friend as amazing and talented and kind hearted as you!!! I wish we were in the same area....we couldn't be any further apart with you in NY and me in WA state lol. Fortunately we have the internet so we can be friends at a distance at least and I'm grateful for that!!! Hugs!!!
