I've developed a routine of gifting most of the folks that work where I do a chocolate presented in some sort of a crafty way. Last year I did mini boxes, but that took a lot of time! This year I made things a bit more simple, by wrapping each chocolate in a pretty ribbon I picked up at JoAnn's, then stamping on the tags, which I accented with hand-drawn stars with my gelly roll glitter pen, punched them out with a perfectly-sized circle punch, and then affixed to the "packages" with silver metallic thread. I stamped the "to/from" stamps from the set on the rear of the discs in early espresso.
Great challenges! Perfect timing for me!

Great idea and so pretty. I thought you had cross stitched a piece to wrap the chocolate....but I read it is ribbon....beautiful. I like your stamped circle. A very pretty gift idea for your co-workers.

Chrissy, the ribbon wrapped chocolate is a gorgeous gift for your co-workers. I, too, thought at first glance that the ribbon had been cross stitched! Such a lovely thing you are doing!

Super cute idea! And the ribbon you used looks like you "made" it yourself!
