    Made these for DS's nursery teachers :)

    In each one was - 6 jelly beans, 2 jelly babies + a note saying "thanks for being a fab teacher! love bXXX" :) not a lot, but not much else would fit in! lol

    :eek::eek:

    I wish I'd spotted this thread sooner! Just after Christmas I gave away my crimper and oddments of card on Freecycle as I hadn't used the stuff in years. Oh pants :(

    But I love these little packs, and really like the idea of table gifts for Christmas and a Sammie's idea of a filling a few with sweets for a Christmas gift.

    .... Is now off to check prices of crimpers :o
