These Kit Kat Bars are so simple (WOW! video below) yet are an impactful little “somethin’” to brighten someone’s day! They were inspired by Jen Roque, a member of my Stampin’ Pretty Pals Community. The creative magic occurs when you wrap them in the Stampin’ Up! Full of Life Designer Series Paper, one of My Favorite Things and part of the Full of Life Suite Collection.
The Stampin’ Up! Full of Life Suite Collection (163369) includes these coordinating products:
- Friends for Life Bundle – 163365
- Iridescent 1/2″ Striped Trim – 163299
- Iridescent Faceted Gems – 163368
- Full of Life 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper – 163357
WHAT I LOVE. I loved playing with the different patterns from the Stampin’ Up! Full of Life Designer Series Paper. To reduce decision making time and keep my desk neater, I simply flip through patterns in these awesome swatch books Brian King offers. You can purchase them here.

PROJECT TUTORIAL:
Use a Paper Trimmer to cut the Designer Series Paper to 4 x 6.
Score the short (4”) side at 1 3/8. Flip 180 degrees and score again at 1 3/8.
Fold at the score lines then wrap the DSP around Kit Kat. The overlap is only about 1/4 with a 6” length.
Carefully dab Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the very edge and hold a down for about 10 seconds after gluing. Watch my Stampin’ Pretty One Minute to WOW Video here.
Use a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (Standard or Mini) and the Friends for Life stem die to crop the Basic Black layer. Use the heart die to crop the Melon Mambo scrap piece (“insert clever message here”)..
Adhere the stem to the wrap (tucked under the sentiment) with a Mini Glue Dot or touch of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Use a Mini MISTI to stamp the sentiments (Saying Hey Stamp Set) in a coordinating color of Classic Ink onto a piece of Basic White card stock.
Crop the sentiment(s) with a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (Standard or Mini) and the Something Fancy dies(s).
Adhere to the wrap with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Adhere the heart to the sentiment die-cut with a Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Wrap with Iridescent 1/2″ Striped Trim, securing as shown with a bow.
POP OF PERSONALITY! Embellish with Iridescent Faceted Gems.
