Twelve Weeks Of Christmas Week 8-Snowy Wonder Boozy Hot Cocoa Treat Box

It's week 8 of my Twelve Weeks of Christmas Series! We're in the home stretch now!  Today I'm sharing an adults only boozy treat.  If you wanted to modify this for kiddos, you can add some fun packaged marshmallows where the Bailey's is instead.  I think that would be a fun treat.  Today though, we're going to stick with the Bailey's.  As much as a teacher might love this gift, make sure you check with your school before giving alcohol for a gift.  Because the Bailey's is a little more pricy then a typical treat you might consider making this for your BFF, a good friend at work, or a host gift. Maybe you have guests coming into town, this would be a fun gift for them too.  

I found my Bailey's at my local grocery store.  It was a 3-pack and on sale for only $11.  Not so bad! Check your local stores. I'm using hot chocolate in mine, instead of hot chocolate you could use some instant coffees.  

I'm using the Snowy Wonder Bundle.  I have LOVED this bundle.  I'm also using the coordinating Snowy Scenes DSP.  This snowflake pattern is one of my favorites! I'm pairing it up with some fun pinks and purples for a fun pop of color!

I did lots of heat embossing on this, I love the bright white on the darker background.  The 1 3/4" Circle punch is the perfect size for the bottle to fit.  If you're using something other than Bailey's look at your dies and punches to find the perfect fit.  For marshmallows, maybe it's a square or oval that works best.  

Be careful lifting this.  Support from the bottom, especially with the alcohol.  It's pretty bottom heavy, even though the bottom is reinforced, lift from the bottom.
