Bird House Nugget Holder

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

For the month of September ...... I am going to feature my Saturday Sweet Treat packaging ideas to be centered around Hershey Nuggets.  Today, I have a SUPER YUMMY sweet treat packaging idea that comes together in a JIFFY.  Let me jump right in with my share.

The inspiration for my 3-D share for today is this DARLING little Hershey Nugget Bird House Holder that Brenda Quintana shared.  I made some VERY SLIGHT changes and came up with this version.  Here is a link to Brenda's video:  Hershey's Nuggets House - YouTube

This little holders is completed in three sections.  The slider box is a 4-1/4" x 3-5/8" piece of  Boho Blue cardstock.  That piece is scored at 1-1/8" on all four sides.  The frame is a 5-5/8" x 2" piece of Boho Blue cardstock and that piece is scored on the long side at 2-1/8" and 3-1/2".....and on the short side you pencil mark 1" down and 1" over.  And the roof is another pieceof Boho Blue cardstock that is 2-3/4" x 1-3/8".  It is scored on the long side at 1-3/8".

The front of my holder is decorated with a sentiment from the 'Pansy Patch' and the bird is from the 'Bird's Eye View' set.

You can tuck four Hershey Nuggets inside each box.

And I covered all my Hershey Nuggets with the Boho Blue Designer Series Paper.

Here's what the frame of my holder looks like before the slider box is added.

Pop the slider box into the frame and

INSTANT WOW FACTOR happens.

Pocket Card

Happy Friday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Fun Fold Friday and that means I have a special little Fun Fold Card to share with you. Let's kick off this Fun Fold Friday share right now.........

The base of this pocket card starts with a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" Crushed Curry base.  I added a layer of Misty Moonlight cardstock to the top of my card base and that piece measures 4" x 5-1/4".  

Next, I took a 3-3/4" x 10" panel of the 'Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper' and created my front center pocket.  To do that, I scored that DSP at 1" and 5".

Before I adhered that DSP panel down to the front of my base card, I wrapped some '2023-2025 In-Color Jute Trim' around the 1" fold and tied it into a pretty bow at the front.  My sentiment piece was created using the 'Stylish Shapes Dies' and my sentiment is from the 'Lighting The Way' set.

My inside pocket piece is a 3-1/4" x 4-3/4" panel of Misty Moonlight cardstock......

And the inside sentiment is stamped at the bottom of that card and it is from the 'Lighting The Way' set.

Just doesn't get any EASIER.

Hope you have fun making these!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to begin sharing a special new Sweet Treat Saturday release with you ........Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Let's jump right in with my tag share for today........

My tag share for today starts off with a Pool Party base tag that is 5-3/4" x 2-1/2".  

Next, I added a 5-1/4" x 2" White cardstock piece to the center.  Before I adhered that piece down to my base tag ..... I clipped a banner flag tail at one end.

My sentiment is from the 'Lighting The Way' stamp set.....

And my two flowers are cropped out from the 'Paper Florist Dies'.

The finishing touch was adding some 'Pool Party Grossgrain Ribbon' to the top of my tag and it was secured with some 'Sweet Sorbet Metallic Woven Ribbon'.

Being A Part Of My Life

Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Wine-Down Wednesday.  My middle of the week card feature for today will hopefully offer you some inspiration and provide you with some motivation to keep you moving through your busy week.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today........

This card is PERFECT for all those times you peek into your DSP stash and find LOTS of left-over pieces of your Designer Series Paper.  All it takes is 5-pieces of 1" x 3-1/4" DSP and you can be ready to pull this card together in no time flat.

I started with a 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" piece of Lost Lagoon cardstock.  That base is scored at 4-1/4". Next, I cut two pieces of White cardstock (1-for the inside and 1-for the front) that are 4" x 5-1/4".  On the piece for the front ..... I scored a 1/4" around on all four sides to create a pretty embossed edge.

Next, I arranged my five pieces of Designer Series Paper around the front of my white panel ..... And I added Stampin' Dimensionals to the back and adhered those to the front of my card.

My sentiment layer pieces are from the 'Nested Essentials Dies' and the 'Stylish Shapes Dies'.  On the Nested Essentials Die piece I stamped my sentiment.  That is from the 'By My Side' set and I used Lost Lagoon ink to stamp that sentiment.

And to finish this card off .... I added the other White panel to the inside and adhered more of that Designer Series Paper to the bottom of my White panel.

And there you have it friends.....

Quick....Easy....And SO FUN to create!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Tag Thursday creation with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Purse Post-It-Note Holder

Happy Tuesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is '3D TUESDAY'.  That means today I have a fun little 3-D project that I created and want to share with you.  This project was SO FUN to create .... and I want to jump right in and share that project with you now.

Check out this ADORABLE post-it-note holder for your purse.  It starts with a 3-1/4" x 8-3/4" piece of Pecan Pie cardstock.  That piece is scored at 1-1/4" and 1-3/4".

I layered the front of my holder with a 3" x 3" piece of Early Espresso.  To the top of that I added a 2-3/4" x 2-3/4" piece of White cardstock.  And my top layer is a piece of Pecan Pie Designer Series Paper and that piece meausres 2-5/8" x 2-5/8".

I wrapped some 'Pecan Pie Bordered Ribbon' around the top of that layer piece ..... 

And added my sentiment piece to the bottom.  That is two Early Espresso circles from the 'Stylish Shapes Dies' and a White banner flag from the same dies.  I did use the 'Go To Greetings' to stamp my sentiment onto the White banner flag.

I did add magnetic to the inside top and inside bottom panel .... And that covered the magnetics and gave this holder a BEAUTIFUL snap finish.

Just A Note Upgrade

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends! 

Today is Mix-It-UP! Monday, and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ..... But I changed things up to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

Here's my Spotlight Sunday card from yesterday on the TOP....

And my Mix-It-UP! Monday upgraded card for today on the BOTTOM....

The first upgrade I made to my card for today was changing the orientation from a portrait style card to a landscape style card.  The base of my card is a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" panel of Lost Lagoon.  To the top of that panel, I added a 4" x 5-1/4" panel of Calypso Coral cardstock.

I added a Very Vanilla panel to the top of my card ...... That piece measured 5" x 7-1/2".  It is scored at 3-3/4".

The Very Vanilla panel opens up to reveal the inside of my card.

I did add five 'Inked Botanicals Desiger Series Paper' panels to the front.  And before I adhered that down ..... I wrapped some Lost Lagoon Ribbon around the bottom and tied it up with some 'Linen Thread'.

My sentiment is from the 'Go To Greetings' and that was stamped onto a Very Vanilla  frame from the 'Countryside Corners Dies'.

I did finish off the inside of my card with one of the flowers from the 'Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper'.

So, what do you think my friends....

Do you have a favorite???

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Wine Down Wednesday card with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Just A Note

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends

Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2023 Stampin' UP! Mini Catalog.  This card uses several products from that new catalog ........ And I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today..........

My card share for today begins with a Lost Lagoon card base.  That piece measures 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and is scored at 4-1/4".  To the top of that ...... I added a Calypso Coral panel that is 4" x 5-1/4"

Next, I cut strips of the 'Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper' that measured 1" x 3-3/4".  I added those pieces to a Very Vanilla 5" x 3-3/4" panel.  I used a total of 5-pieces of Designer Series Paper to cover that Very Vanilla panel.

And my sentiment was created with the 'Go To Greetings' set ..... And that was stamped onto a Very Vanilla 'Countryside Corners Die' piece.

So, there you have it friends.....

Hi Sweet Friend

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

For the month of September ...... I am going to feature my Saturday Sweet Treat packaging ideas to be centered around Hershey Nuggets.  Today, I have a SUPER YUMMY sweet treat packaging idea that comes together in a JIFFY.  Let me jump right in with my share.

This little holder was inspired by Julie at the 'Paper Pixie' back in 2017.  It starts out with a 4" x 5-7/8" base.  It is scored at 5/8" on all four sides.  On the 5-7/8" side score at 2-5/8" and 3-1/4".

I used the Neutral's Designer Series Paper and this is Pecan Pie.

I did use the 'Pecan Pie Bordered Ribbon' to wrap around the top section of my box ..... And I was able to tie it up into a pretty bow in the front.

My sentiment is from the 'By My Side' set ..... And that is stamped onto a banner flag that was cropped out using the 'Cracker & Treat Box Dies'.

The ribbon fits so PERFECTLY .... that slipping it off takes NO EFFORT!!!!

And I covered the four Hershey Nuggets with more of the 'Pecan Pie Neutral's Designer Series Paper'.

And there you have it friends......

What do you think????
