Better Than Chocolate

This is the last project from January Stamp Club. We used the Better than Chocolate Stamp Set from the annual catalog. It’s so cute and fun to arrange all the little chocolates in the box!

I like the heart shaped depression in the Sweetheart Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and thought it would make a perfect “box” for the candy. The heart stamp fits perfectly inside the depression.

Stamps: More Than Chocolate

Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Powder Pink

Ink: Powder Pink, Early Espresso, Chocolate Chip

Dies: Sweet & Sassy Framelits Dies, Layering Ovals Framelits Dies

Other: Sweetheart TIEF, 1/2” Finely Woven Powder Pink Ribbon, 1/8” Silver Ribbon

Heart Happiness Mini Card

This is another of our January Stamp Club projects. We made a mini valentine to go in our pizza box, using the Heart Happiness Stamp Set, which coordinates with the heart die from the Lots of Love Box Framelits Dies and the Sweet and Sassy Framelits Dies. The large heart was the leftover piece we cut from the cardstock on the front of our pizza box, so no waste. If you missed the Mini Pizza Box, you can find it here.

Once again, we used the beautiful Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper. Unfortunately, the gold foil is showing up more black in my photos, which certainly doesn’t do this card justice! That gold foil is gorgeous in real life.

This card is 3”x6”, and when folded in half, fits perfectly into the 3”x3” envelopes, which in turn, fit perfectly into the Mini Pizza Box. Tip: When making cards this size, use 12”x12” cardstock. You can get 8 from one sheet with NO waste!

Stamps: Heart Happiness, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Cardstock: Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo, Calypso Coral

Ink: Melon Mambo, Calypso Coral

Dies: Lots to Love Box Framelits Dies, Sweet and Sassy Framelits Dies

Other: Mini gold sequins

Sure Do Love You Mini Pizza Box

This is one of our projects from January’s Stamp Club, using the mini pizza boxes. Although you won’t see these in the catalog, they did carry over from the Holiday Catalog (Item #144645), and are still available.

Be sure to look for the Painted With Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP). It is absolutely gorgeous in Calypso Coral, Melon Mambo, Powder Pink, Rich Razzleberry, and beautiful Gold Foil!

The gold foil is really hard to photograph, and the picture really doesn’t do this project justice. The heart around the cutout is embossed with gold, although that’s hard to see, too.

Stamps: Sure Do Love You

Cardstock: Melon Mambo, Whisper White

Ink: Rich Razzleberry, VersaMark

Dies: Lots to Love Box Framelits Dies

Paper: Painted With Love Specialty DSP

Other: Mini Pizza Box, Gold Embossing Powder, Love Mini Tinsel Trim Combo Pack

Seasonal Chums New Year

I’m so jealous of all of you who have been getting snow over the past few weeks! I love snow! We’ve had a few flurries, but no accumulation.

We made this card at our December Stamp Club, using the Winter Wonder Textured Impression Embossing Folder that retired last month. I was so sorry to see it go.

We also used the snowman from the Seasonal Chums set, which I’m happy to say is carrying over! It’s actually meant to be a tag, and has a front and back, which are connected when you cut them out with the coordinating die.

We really didn’t need the back of the snowman, but I thought it would be cute to put it inside the front of the card, so we did!

Stamps: Seasonal Chums, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Cardstock: Marina Mist, Whisper White

Ink: Basic Black

Dies: Seasonal Tags Framelits Dies

Other: Marina Mist Cotton Ribbon (retired), 1/8” Silver Ribbon, Basic Rhinestone, Winter Wonder TIEF, Stampin’ Write Markers

If you need any supplies, and don’t have a demonstrator, I’d love to be your demonstrator!

Wise Men from Afar

Do you know what today is? It’s Three Kings Day. I wasn’t aware of that holiday until we lived in Germany. When we lived there, people left their Christmas decorations up until January 6th.

This is a gift I gave to my Stamp Club members. It’s a small bar of Frankincense and Myrrh soap packaged in a cello bag. It smells amazing! The soap is made by a friend of mine in Bardstown, KY. You can find her website here. She has the most adorable little goats and makes her products using goat’s milk. If you contact her, please let her know that I sent you her way.

Stamps: Wise Men from Afar

Cardstock: Marina Mist, Gold Glimmer

Ink: Night of Navy

Punches: Scallop Tag Topper, Small Star (retired)

Other: Night of Navy Seam Binding (retired), 3×6 gusseted cello bags

Thanks for taking the time to visit today!

This little pouch is one of my very favorite projects EVER! Why? I’m glad you asked! This pouch is so quick and easy to make and requires NO ADHESIVE! Our 6”x6” paper stacks are the perfect size, so there’s also NO CUTTING involved!

Be sure to follow my blog because I plan to do a quick tutorial on this project soon!

Add A Little Glitz

This was a last minute gift card holder from December Stamp Club. I got the idea right out of the Holiday Catalog. It’s so quick and easy that you could make a bunch of these in no time flat!

I did add a little line of glue to seal the bottom so the gift card wouldn’t slide right out. And again, we colored the rhinestones red with the Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend pen.

Stamps: Add a Little Glitz

Cardstock: Crumb Cake

Ink: Real Red, Old Olive

Punch: Scallop Tag Topper

Other: Quilted Christmas 1/4” Ribbon

This would be a cute idea for any time you need a gift card holder in a hurry!

I hope your holidays sparkled!

Tags & Trimmings Stocking

Please bear with me, as I continue to catch up on sharing projects from the last two months.

The last project from November Stamp Club was a Christmas Stocking gift card holder. This die set has a LOT of dies to make and decorate stockings, but you can also make regular pillow boxes for any occasion. The stocking would also be super cute done in pink or blue for a baby gift. I’ve even seen it turned upside down with added antlers to make a reindeer! Some people are just so clever. And, wouldn’t several of these make a cute banner, either for Christmas or to welcome a new baby?
