Belly Buttons and Chocolate Popcorn - JustRite

Two snacks that have become a tradition at Christmas! These last minute food items are a snap to make, easy to package, and so much fun to gift! The oyster cracker snack is called "Belly Buttons" and was found in our church cookbook. Our oldest daughter years ago wanted to make a fast snack and came across the recipe. She really picked it at the time for the title, we don't know why they are called belly buttons, but fun nonetheless. (recipe at end of post!) Using up those stamped images for packaging. LOVE this sentiment with the Santa Hat. They are found in "JustRite's A Merry Little Christmas Set" and work perfectly for this gift. Image is Copic colored. Red circle is edge distressed.

I started making this chocolate popcorn (scroll down a bit in post) after reading about it from Julie Ebersole. She was one of the first stampers I followed when I became acquainted with Splitcoaststampers. I have made this every year since. It is soooo easy and can be made all colors. I purchased my chocolate discs at Michaels.

Again this stamped sentiment center is found in JustRite's A Merry Little Christmas set. Ribbon used is from Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply Ribbon store. The two snacks together are perfect, sweet and savory! More packaging tomorrow! Have a great day and take good care!
