Time to Celebrate

 Good Morning, Stampers!

Are you ready to add a little handmade happiness to your holiday gifting? Today I’m sharing a fun treat-holder idea featuring the NEW Timeless Celebrations bundle coming to my online store in November! This versatile bundle is perfect for creating thoughtful little gifts throughout the year, and these pretty packages are a wonderful way to get a head start on your holiday treat making!

I love the combination of the rich gold and black patterned papers paired with the elegant black ribbon. The little greenery accent adds a finishing touch that makes these treat holders feel extra special. And the “Time to Celebrate” sentiment is perfect for so many occasions!

The beauty of the Timeless Celebrations bundle is that you aren't limited to just one season or holiday. With a simple change of designer series paper, colors, ribbon, and embellishments, you can easily customize your projects for birthdays, anniversaries, thank-you gifts, seasonal celebrations, and more.

These little treat holders would be wonderful for holiday parties, gifts for friends and neighbors, coworker surprises, or a special handmade favor for your next gathering. Fill them with a favorite candy or another small surprise to create a gift that is just as fun to give as it is to receive!

Be sure to check my online store in November for the 

Timeless Celebrations bundle and more fun Online Exclusives products!

The Hearth and Home designer papers feature fun patchwork quilt-like patterns giving you lots of fun options for creating all year long - no matter what the occasion is!

CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Spooky Things

 Good Morning, Stampers!

Welcome to this week’s Create with Stampin’ Friends Saturday Blog Hop! 

This week, we’re getting into the Halloween spirit with our theme, Spooky Things! I couldn’t resist creating a fun little candy treat that’s perfect for sharing a little Halloween happiness with family, friends, neighbors, or your favorite crafty friends.

Who says Halloween treats have to be complicated? Sometimes, all it takes is a little candy, some fabulous designer paper, and a touch of creativity to turn an ordinary sweet into something extra special!

This is just a simple 1 1/2" strip of designer paper wrapped around twi candy bars and topped with a few cut outs from the designer papers and stamped pumpkins from the Thanks and Giving stamp set.

 Small treat holders are a wonderful way to use those favorite patterns while creating something thoughtful and fun to give away. They’re also perfect for Halloween parties, classroom treats, craft gatherings, or a little spooky surprise for someone special!

SU!pplies:
Stamps: Thanks and Giving, Soiree Salutations
Ink: Basic Black
Paper: Basic White, Pumpkin Pie, Frightfully Fun DSP
Accessories: Stylish Shapes dies, Seasonal Cheer mini embossing folders, Black Iridescent ribbon, Three Banner punch

rubberFUNatics Weekly Challenge #413

 Good Morning, Stampers!

(click to enlarge)

Welcome to RubberFunatics Weekly Challenge #413!  This week we have a fun sketch challenge, and I’m excited to share my take on the layout!

I love how this sketch lets you layer different shapes, patterns, and colors to create a card with lots of visual interest. I used a rich fall color palette, mixing patterned paper with embossed cardstock for added texture. The focal point features a stamped and colored fall arrangement filled with pumpkins and seasonal foliage, finished with a banner sentiment that says Happy Thanksgiving.

The combination of layers, textures, and fall patterns gives this card a cozy autumn feel. I especially love how the embossed background adds dimension while the decorative ribbon ties everything together!
