Easter Chocolate Treats Costco Style

Happy Tuesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is 'CASE IT TUESDAY'.  That means today I have a fun little 3-D project that I found on the internet ....... And I created a CASE of that project to share with you today.  This project was SUPER FUN to create and want to jump right in and share that project with you now.

 

Who would have thought that these little Chocolate Carrots (from the Dollar Store) would be so QUICK & EASY to decorate.  The very talented Erica Cerwin shared these little cuties on her blog back on 3/20/2015 (https://pinkbuckaroodesigns.blogspot.com/2015/03/carrot-east-treat-video-tutorial.html)

 

These little cuties are made with the 'Layering Ovals Dies'......

 

Some Designer Series Paper......

 

And the 'Fable Friends' stamp set.

 

I created over 20 of these to hand out in line at Costco.

 

And so someone doesn't think I'm CRAZY......

I added my business card information to the back.

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

Just my way of spreading a tiny bit of HAPPY to all those 

who are going through a difficult time right now. 

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

For You 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 made ONE HUGE upgrade to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

Here is my Spot Light Sunday card from yesterday on the LEFT....

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

 

The first upgrade I made to my card for today is I changed the orientation of my card.  That also meant I was able to create a FUN FOLD for this card.

    

All I did was cut off 1-1/4" from the front of my Night of Navy base card ....... And I used that piece to create the flap-over part of this card.  I cut that piece down to 1-1/4" x 3-1/2" and scored it at 1/2".  This allowed me to adhere that flap to the inside of my card........And all I needed to do was adhere down my Designer Series Paper over it (and the front panel).

 

The embellishment piece on this card uses the same floral die-cut that comes with this kit ....... 

 

And that 1-1/4" piece that was cut off the front of my card became the flap-over element for 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 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

For You Card

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends

Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2019 Stampin' Mini Catalog.  This card uses something special found in that catalog ........ And I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today..........

 

Need a QUICK but PRETTY card to send out?  Stay with me on this post......I have the PERFECT card lined up for you.

 

The base of this card is from the 'Three Cheers For You' All-Inclusive Kit (on page 59 of the Mini Catalog).  I also used the 'Golden Honey DSP' to decorate the front of my Night of Navy card.

 

The floral embellishment comes with this kit ...... And all I did was die-cut some 'Layering Circles' for that embellishment to rest on.

 

A couple pretty sequins (that come with this kit) around the front of my card ...... And this card was done in a SUPER JIFFY!!!

So what do you think my friends........
Didn't I say this would be a QUICK & PRETTY card!!!

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!

March Kit

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the cards I created using the March 'No Matter The Weather' Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's those cards......

 

 This kit makes three SUPER FUN cards........

 

This first card uses the ADORABLE boot die-cut pieces that come with this kit.

 

How cute are these!!!!

 

 All I needed to do for this card was stamp some clouds.....

 

And add the die-cut pieces.......SUPER EASY!!!!!

 

 And my FAVORITE card has to be this row of boots.

 

All I needed to do was line up the boots in front of the girls legs and an instant WOW kind of card was created.

 

I SERIOUSLY had FUN creating with the

 'No Matter The Weather' kit.

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

Friends Friday Pics

Happy Friday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Friends Friday.  On Friday's, I have the honor of spot-lighting some of the fabulous cards and projects that I received from Friends ....... Fellow Demonstrators ........ and Family.  Each of these creations are works of art........and it is with great pleasure that I share with you today some AMAZING projects that four very special friends made for me.

 

My LONG TIME Wisconsin friend Barbara Banks presented me with this LOVELY pink box.......

 

And here is what was tucked inside this lovely box.  She created me a YUMMY box of ceramic chocolates.  OH MY GOSH......THEY LOOK SO REAL!!!

 

And who knows me better than my GOOD friend Gus Berry. ......

   

She created me this FABULOUS Malibu and Bailey's Boozie necklace for my Spring Saddle-UP! event.  She knows that I hold fast to the hours of 9:00 to 3:00 on my Saddle-UP! events.......And that is because I don't want to cut into my guest (OR MY) happy hour time.

 

Check out this AWESOME card made by my Scissors girlfriend Donna Fritz.

 

She always knows the PERFECT message to tuck inside her cards.

 

And my final share for today is this OVER THE TOP HAPPY card made by my SWEET friend Cheri Utsler.

I look at it ........ and SMILE BIG!!!!

Two Kindness Chics

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........

 

Aren't these two Easter Chic tags ADORABLE...

And image how AWESOME they would look on an Easter Basket!!!

 

 And here is how they look with the tag insert removed.

 

I created a Calypso Coral base with a Mint Macaron tag..... 

And a Mint Macaron base with a Calypso Coral tag.

 

Each tag used the new 'Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper'........That was wrapped around each base tag to create a pocket.  I also stamped a fluffy little chic from the 'Welcome Easter' set to decorate the front of each tag.

 

I used the 'Waterfront' set to stamp my sentiment on the inside of each tag.

 

And I decorate the top of each tag with some pretty 'Whisper White 3/8" Metallic-Edge Ribbon'.  I used my Calypso Coral and Mint Macaron 'Stampin' Blends' to color and coordinate each of the ribbons with my tags.

 

So what do you think friends.......

Do you think these are PERFECT for an Easter Basket!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share some Friends Friday creations with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Reese's Egg Wrapper

Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Wine-Down Wednesday.  My middle of the week creation 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 Easter share for today........

 

Today, I have a FUN & EASY Easter Treat Holder you can create in a JIFFY!!!

 

I purchased a package of Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs and designed a little wrapper for each egg to tuck inside.

 

All it took was a piece of Designer Series Paper that measures 5-1/2" x 6".  I used my 'Layering Oval Dies' to crop out the center of each piece of Designer Series Paper.......And then grabbed my Envelope Punch Board for the ends of my wrapper.

 

After I had my wrapper adhered together ...... I slide my wrapper into the Envelope Punch Board and punched out the ends at 1".  Doing this on both ends helped to create a fun little wrapper section.

 

I used some ribbon to wrap that punched out section on both ends.......And this simple design took on a fun wrapper look.

Each wrapper was embellished with one of the bunnies from the 'Welcome Easter' set.....

 

And I punched out some tiny oval pieces to create some little eggs for the front of my wrapper.

These are going to my grandkids back in Wisconsin......

Just know they are going to LOVE receive this little treat!!!

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