Kit Kat Wrapper Tutorial

Tutorials/Tips

19 Aug

Last year after Convention I learned this cute trick to make an ordinary candy bar the life of the party! At my upline's meeting (hey Rhonda!) Elizabeth Martinez (hey girl) showed us how to cover a Kit Kat bar, and I demoed this at my workshops from Halloween through Christmas and everyone loved it.

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 002 copy You will need:

1.5oz kit kat bar (buy two, you know you're gonna wanna eat one)

Stamp set: Batty For You

Ink: Basic Black, Bashful Blue marker

Paper: Whisper White, Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, Ghostly Greetings DSP

Misc: Black gingham, crimper, 1 3/8" circle punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1" circle punch, crimper, snail, glue dots

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 003 copy  Cut your DSP to 6×6, lay the Kit Kat in the center of the backside of the paper. Run snail along all 4 edges of the DSP. 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 004 copy

Pull up one side and wrap the candy bar half way up. This is why you snailed all the way around.

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 005 copy

Bring up the other side, and finish wrapping the bar.

 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 006 copy

Squeeze each open end closed (again this is why you use snail all the way around)

 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 007 copy

Put each end in the crimper and crimp till it touches the candy bar.

 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 008 copy

That makes it look like this…neat eh? Ya can't see it here but I picked the paper that said yum yum yum yum   etc.  I thought it was appropriate.

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 010 copy

Cut a strip of basic black cardstock 1 1/4" x 7.5" – put snail on one end.

 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 011 copy

Wrap this around the wrapped bar and glue the cardstock strip to itself (you don't glue it to the DSP) in the back with the snail. That way you can move the strip back and forth so you can place it correctly.

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 013 copy   There ya have the belly band on the bar.

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 015 copy

Cut a piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock to 7.5" x 1" and wrap it around the black belly band the same way.

You could decorate this strip first if you like with a wheel or something, I just left mine plain to skip a few steps in the tutorial, I figured it was long enough for ya.

Put this aside for now.

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 016 copy

Stamp the little spider from the Batty for You set with Basic Black ink on a piece of Whisper White cardstock, and again on Pumpkin Pie cardstock.

 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 017 copy

Using the 1" circle punch, punch out the spider on the Whisper White cardstock.

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 018

Punch out the spider on the Pumpkin Pie paper with the 1 1/4" circle punch.

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 019 copy

Punch out a 1 3/8" circle from Basic Black cardstock.

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 020 copy

Color in the eyes of the tiger spider with the bashful blue marker.

I was gonna color them Kiwi Kiss, but I had already told ya Bashful Blue marker and did not want to pull a fast one on ya….

(I hear ya!) Fast??…holy heck, this tutorial is taking forever, it wont take me that long to eat the darned thing…..

 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 022 copy

Glue the whisper white spider over top the pumpkin pie spider.

Then glue the 1 3/8" basic black circle behind these two.

And that gives you…

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 024 copy

…this!

Ain't he cute?

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 026 copy

Tie a piece of black gingham ribbon around the belly bands.

 

 

 

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 027 copy

 Stack about 3 glue dots on each side (yeah I said 3 – that way you'll need to order more – ha!!!) just kidding, it just makes it stick up more. You could use a dimensional too, I just like the glue dots cause they are not as obvious from the side as a dimensional.

You want to put the glue dots so they are going to straddle the ribbon when you glue it on the front.

 

Kit kat wrapper tutorial 028 copy

The End…..now let's Eat!

I wanna thank my new friend Gwen(y) for my little easel isn't it the cutest?  It makes you think the candy bar is huge doesn't it? Cause it almost looks like this is a room, and the easel is in the corner with a huge candy bar on it.  Hee! hee!

 

Well I hope you have enjoyed this little tutorial, now go out and cover lots and lots, and use different DSP! The choices are endless and so are the candy bars.

Thanks for stopping in!

Hugs, Di

    Oh my gosh! I am so loving this idea!! I made my husband look at it too! I know… he could care less, but I loved it so much that I had to show someone and he was here next to me! I need to do this! I've been vacillating about doing Stampin Up for a while now. I don't know if I should do a really big order or become a demonstrator! You guys are so creative! Oh, by the way, I've been reading your blog for a while and noticed that you are really into vampire things and I've just finished reading a great vampire series. "The Marked", "The Betrayed" and "The Chosen" By P.C. Cast and her daughter Kristin Cast. They were really good. I've read all the Twilight series and loved them too. Sorry for the long post! Julia
    P.S. Any advice on the SU stuff you can email me at julze11@cox.net

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
