Ghiradelli 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.

My holder starts off with a piece of Thick White Cardstock that meausres 3-1/2" x 6-1/2".  It is scored at 3" on both ends.

I covered the front and back of my holder with a 2-3/4" x 3-1/4" piece of 'Snowflake Magic Designer Series Paper'.

I secured my holder with some 'White 1/2" Iridescent Ribbon' and tied it up into a pretty bow.

To decorate the front of my holder .... I used the Santa Hat from the 'Sending Cheers Dies' and the sentiment is from the 'Celebrate with Tags' set.

And when the holder is opened ..... I added a piece of 6-1/4" x 7" 'Snowflake Magic Designer Series Paper'.  It is scored on the 6-1/4" side at 2-7/8" on both ends.  And on the 7" side it is scored at 2" and 5-1/8". 

All that was left to do was add two Ghirardelli Chocolates to each side and this holder was called done (in no time flat). 

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

Jolly Season

Happy Friday My Blogger Friends!

Today 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..........

I started off with a 4-1/4" x 11" piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  That piece is scored at 5-1/2".  

Next, I added a panel of 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" White cardstock to the top of my base card.  Before I adhered that piece down .... I ran it throught my embossing machine using the 'Snowflake Sky Embossing Folder'.

I added a panel of the 'Shining Christmas Designer Series Paper' to the top of that embossed White panel.....

And added a sentiment layering piece that was cropped out with the 'Something Fancy Dies'.  My sentiment is from the 'So Very Merry' set.

And the inside of my card was finished off with a White cardstock panel and another panel of the 'Shining Christmas Designer Series Paper' at the bottom.

Just doesn't get any EASIER.

Hope you give this card a try!!!!

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!

Merry & Bright Bear Tag

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 off with a White base tag that was 2" x 8-1/2".  It is scored at 5" and 7-1/2".  These score lines helped to create the pocket that I wanted to create for my tag.

The first thing I did was cover my entire tag front with a 2" x 8-1/2" piece of the 'Beay Christmas Designer Series Paper'.  Then.....I folded up the bottom and created my pocket for this tag.  I used some 'Night of Navy 1/2" Glittered Ribbon' to wrap around the pocket section and that created the closure for my tag.

Next, I used the 'Snowflake Tag Topper Punch' to crop out the top edge of my tag.....

And then added a single knotted piece of ribbon to the top of my tag.

My inside tag slider was created with a 3-3/4" x 1-7/8" piece of White cardstock ..... And I stamped my sentiment and cropped it out before adhering it to that slider piece.

I finished off the front of my tag by adding a layering circle piece to the front pocket section.  That was cropped out with several circle punches and the 'Beary Christmas Designer Series Paper'.

Just doesn't get any EASIER....

What do you think my friends????

               Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!

Today 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..........

I started off with a 5-1/2"  x 8-1/2" White base and scored that piece at 4-1/4".  To the top of that base card ..... I added a 4" x 5-1/4" panel of Night of Navy cardstock.

Next, I cropped out five Balmy Blue 1" circles and positioned a single 'Snowflake Assortment' piece in the center.  I backed each of those circles with a White circle that was cropped out with the 'Stylish Shape Circle Dies'.

And I stamped my sentiment from the 'Throughout The Year' set at the bottom of my card.  I did use VersaMark ink and White Embossing Powder to help that sentiment really POP off the Night of Navy cardstock.

What do you think my friends!!!!

Happy Tuesday My Blogger Friends!

Today 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..........

I started my card off today with a 4-1/4" x 11" Night of Navy base.  It is scored at 5-1/2".  To the top of that ..... I added a 4" x 5-1/4" panel of Very Vanilla cardstock.  I added some 'Night of Navy Glittered Ribbon' around that Very Vanilla panel before it was adhered down.

Next, I added three 3/4" x 5-1/4" panels of the 'Shining Brightely Designer Series Paper' down the left-hand side of that Vanilla panel.

And then I got busy and created my stocking centerpiece.  I used a 'Brushed Metallic Paper' scallop frame that was cropped out from the 'Scallop Contour Dies' and topped that off with a Vanilla frame that my stocking would be placed on.

I did add a Gold Embossed sentiment to the top of that Vanilla frame ..... And I used the 'Regal Reindeer' set to stamp that sentiment.

I decorated the inside of my card with another Vanilla panel and added a single 3/4" x 5-1/4" panel of the 'Shining Brightly Designer Series Paper' to the left-hand edge.

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

What do you think????

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends! 

Today I have a card I created using product from the 2023 Stampin' UP! Mini Catalog.  This card was inspired from my fellow InkBig friend Peggy Noe and I knew the minute I saw her card ...... I wanted to make a few to send out this year.  I'm thrilled with the way this card turned out and want to share that card with you today.

My Pecan Pie base card starts off with a 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" piece that is scored at 4-1/4".

To the top of my base card ..... I added a 4" x 4" panel of the 'Glorious Gingham Designer Series Paper'.....

And at the bottom ..... I added my sentiment.  That was a 1-1/4" x 4" White panel that was stamped with the 'Sending Cheer' set.

My little gingerbread man was stamped onto a White 'Deckled Circle Die' and positioned directly into the center of my card.

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

What do you think????
