Stacking Fall Boxes

            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.

I created these stacking boxes as part of my Thanksgiving deco.

I used 'Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper' for the lid of each box ..... And Pretty Peacock cardstock for the base of each box.

I stacked all three boxes on top of each other and wrapped them up with some 'Lost Lagoon Border Ribbon'.

My boxes were topped off with a tag from the 'Tailor Made Tags Dies' ..... And the sentiment for that tag was created with the help of the 'Very Best Occasions' stamp set.

All I needed to do was add three leaves from the 'Aspen Trees Dies' to complete my tag.

The smallest box base is 6" x 6" and the lid is 4" x 4".  The medium box base is 7" x 7" and the lid is 5" x 5".  And the largest box base is 8" x 8" and the lid is 6" x 6".

All three boxes were scored the same ..... For the base I scored at 2" on all four sides .... And for the lid I scored at 1" on all four sides.

What do you think my friends!!!!

Hope you can find time to create a set

of these for your Thanksgiving Day table.

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!

Autumn Teaches Us 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 change up the orientation from a landscape style card to a portrait style card.  I upgraded the front of my card for today by only embossing the two outer edges of my card front.

I added a single Blackberry Bliss 3/4" x 5-1/2" panel at the right-hand side of my card front....

And added my sentiment to the top portion of that Blackberry Bliss panel.  I used the 'Autumn Leaves' stamp set and dies to create that sentiment piece.

I stacked three die-cut leaves from the 'Autumn Leaves Dies' to the front of my card.....

And ran those through my embossing machine with the 'Splatter Embossing Folder' before adhering them to my card.

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 3D Tuesday creation with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

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 base card for today is a 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Very Vanilla that is scored at 4-1/4".  

I did add a 1/4" score line around all four sides of my card front for a tiny bit more texture.

My three leaves were created with the help of the 'Autumn Leaves' stamp set and coordinating dies.

And my sentiment is also from that same stamp and die set.

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

What do you think????

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share an upgraded version of this very card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Ferrero Rocher Holder

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

Today I have another Saturday Sweet Treat packaging idea to share with you.  This project is a SUPER YUMMY, sweet treat packaging.  Let me jump right in with my share.

I started off with a 2" x 9-1/2" Early Espresso base piece.  That was scored at 3/4", 2-3/4", 3-1/2" and 5-1/2".

I did use my 'Very Best Trio Punch' to crop out the top corners of my holder.  And this gave me a pretty topped edge design I was looking for.

I added a sentiment panel that was from the 'So Sincere' set.  I used a combination of circle and square layering pieces to complete that sentiment piece. 

I cropped a circle into the bottom section of my base and this allowed me to drop in my candy after I had my holder completed.

And to finish off my holder ..... I used some 'Pecan Pie Center Stripe Ribbon' to wrap around the bottom section.

Just doesn't get any EASIER.

Hope you have fun making these!!!

Thinking of You Flap-Up 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.........

My base card is a 4-1/4" x 8" Cherry Cobbler and that is scored at 5-1/2".  That gave me a 2-1/2" flap panel at the bottom of my card (when I orientated my card to portrait style).

I added a 4" x 5-1/4" panel of Verry Vanilla to the inside section of my base card.  That panel was embossed with the 'Tree Rings Embossing Folder'.  My center flap-up panel is a 3-1/2" x 8-1/2" panel of Cherry Cobbler and that was scored at 4-1/4".  This piece was adhered to the center of my base card.  I decorated this panel with another embossed Very Vanilla panel .... And added a pretty sentiment panel across the top.  I used the 'Season of Chic' set for that sentiment.

I also added two leaves that were cropped out using the 'Aspen Tree Dies' and those were adhered directly onto the front of that flap-up panel.

I used some 'Pecan Pie Center Stripe Ribbon' around that 2-1/2" front section and that helped to secure the flap-up panel in place.

The flap-up panel tucks inside the 2-1/2" base card section .....

And when opened .... It reveals a center section for me to write my message.

And here's a close-up of the inside of my card.

Just doesn't get any EASIER.

Hope you have fun making this!!!

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!

Happy Thursday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Tag Thursday.  Today, I will feature a tag I created and show you how easy it is to use minimal supplies to create a SUPER PRETTY TAG.  Now that you have the details for my Tag Thursday creation for this week ........ Let's jump right in with my tag share for today........

I started my tag off today with a 3" x 4-1/4" Very Vanilla base.

I cut strips of fall colored cardstock into 3/8" x 5" pieces and arranged those across the front of my tag.  I clipped off any pieces that might be hanging over on the top.

Next, I stamped my sentiment from the 'Autumn Leaves' set onto a frame that was cropped out using the 'Autumn Leaves Dies'.  That was adhered to the front of my tag.

I cropped out a large leaf from the 'Autumn Leaves Dies' and arranged that onto the center of my tag.  And to add a little WOW FACTOR.....I added three 'Rustic Metallic Dots' around the single leaf.

And I finished off my tag by adding some 'Pecan Pie Center Stripe Ribbon'.

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

What do you think???

  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........

My base card is Early Espresso and that piece measures 4-1/4" x 11".  It is scored at 5-1/2".  To the top of that .... I added a 4" x 5-1/4" panel of Very Vanilla.

Before I adhered that Very Vanilla panel down to the front of my card ..... I wrapped some 'Linen Thread' around it and added my sentiment.  My sentiment is from the 'So Sincere' set and I stamped that onto an 'Autumn Leaves Dies' frame.

Next, I started designing my focal piece.  I cropped out a 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" Early Espresso panel .... And added four 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" squares of festive fall colored cardstock.  Before I adhered each of those onto the Early Espresso square .... I rounded two opposite corners to give each square a teardrop look.

I finished off that focal piece with a single Cherry Cobbler leave that was cropped out using the 'Autumn Leaves Dies'.  And the final touch was adding a single 'Festive Pearl' to the corner of each fall colored cardstock piece .... And one onto the base of my leaf.

I finished off the inside of my card with three 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" squares and stacked those along the left-hand side.  Each square was finished off with a single 'Autumn Leaves Die'.

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

Doesn't it just SCREAM happy fall!!!!!
