Stampin’ Up! Envelope Punch Board Treat Pocket!

Stampin’ Up! Envelope Punch Board Treat Pocket!

Hey there! I have another fun project using the Envelope Punch Board today! It's another treat holder, this time using Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper, the Best of Christmas Stamp set, and the Christmas Ornament Punch!

Stampin_up_winter_frost_pocket_treat_1

This project is QUICK, QUICK, QUICK! Just cut your paper to size, score and punch with the Envelope Punch Board, fold, adhere with a bit of SNAIL adhesive, and embellish! After I stamped the ornament with Island Indigo ink, I punched it out with the Christmas Ornament Punch. I tied a bit of Whisper White Organza Ribbon around the pocket, then adhered the ornament to the pocket with Stampin' Dimensionals. This little pocket fits a single piece of the "G" brand chocolates perfectly!

For the final touch I added a bit of bling to the ornament with my Silver Dazzling Details! It complements the Smoky Slate in the Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper perfectly!

Stampin_up_winter_frost_pocket_treat_2

I used one of the stamps from the Christmas Collectibles stamp set on the back side because it already has a "to:" and "from" in it! This would be a perfect co-worker gift, wouldn't it?

In case you haven't seen the Envelope Punch Board in action, here's a video by Stampin' Up! showcasing the basics of operation and how to make a custom envelope with it:

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing Ornament!

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing Ornament!

Hey there! We had a wonderful Saturday with our house full of family, good food, fun games, a personality quiz, and lots of laughter!

Cohen & Jaxon spent the night so Johnny & Jessica & Ava could take Maddie Kate to her first Cheer Competition in Mt Vernon, and Kimmy & Liam spent the night just because! SO FUN!

My project to share with you today is another from my upcoming Christmas Catch-up Class on December 13th! If you are local to me, please let me know of your intentions to come!

We will be using the Wonderful Blessing Single Stamp to create this easy ornament. I white heat-embossed the image on Midnight Muse cardstock, then cut it out with one of the Circle Collection Framelits. I layered it on a Silver Glimmer circle, then another Midnight Muse circle. I used my hot glue gun to add the 1/8" Silver Ribbon to the back of the ornament.

Stampin_up_wonderful_blessing_1

Up super-close you can see the fine detail of the Wonderful Blessing image. I added just a touch of bling with a Rhinestone Basic Jewel to the Christmas star.

Stampin_up_wonderful_blessing_3

On the back side I covered the hot-glued ribbon with a circle of Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper, then a Whisper White circle that I stamped with one of the phrases from More Merry Messages with Midnight Muse ink.

Stampin_up_wonderful_blessing_2

This is really an easy ornament. I need to make a few more of these even before the class on the 13th!

That's all for now. Thanks so much for stopping by. You can order the supplies to make your own from my Online Store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Snow Hot Chocolate Pouch!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Snow Hot Chocolate Pouch!

Hey there! We are back home from our visit with our Tennessee family, and today we will be celebrating with all of our kids and grandkids! God is good!

Today I have a Hot Chocolate Pouch design to show you I cased from a UK demo, Monica Gale:

Stampin_up_best_of_snow_1

I used her basic design to construct the pouch (even used the Envelope Punch Board for the corner rounding!), but of course changed some things up a bit by using the Best of Snow stamp in the focal image, adding Northern Flurry Textured Impressions embossing, and using one of the phrases from More Merry Messages punched with the Modern Label Punch!

I went to Walmart to get some candy canes for these pouches and was amazed to find there were no traditional-just-red-and-white candy canes to be had! There were some teeny-tiny ones, but the rest were all blue, purple, orange, & pink! I'm guess I'm a candy-cane purist, as I'm not crazy to have my candy canes in weird colors! I ended up with these that do have a brown and a green stripe (they are chocolate-mint!), but while I was in TN I hunted some more and found REAL candy canes at a Publix grocery store in Franklin, TN! yay! You will probably see them in some future projects (if I don't end up eating them all, they are BOB's brand, which are the BEST!)

Stampin_up_best_of_snow_2

I just love this stamp from Best of Snow! It's been so cold lately I wish it would just go ahead and snow and put some fluffy white stuff on the ground!

This is one of the projects you can choose to make at my Christmas Catch Up Customer Appreciation Open House on December 13th!

ETA 8/23/15: I've had TWO requests for the directions to make this project in the past week, so I am posting it here for you:

Download Northern Flurry Hot Cocoa Cup

Well, I have bunches to do before the kids start arriving shortly after noon! Lots of cooking and a bit of cleaning & laundry from our trip too!

Don't forget there are just a few more days to get your order in from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Sale flyer!

You can view the sale flyer HERE   as well as place your order! Don't forget to check out the Weekly Deals tab and the Clearance Rack too!

That's all for now! I just received a new batch of my monthly swaps, so come back tomorrow for a bunch of fun giftcard ideas for Sunday Swap Day!

Stampin’ Up! Thankful Tablescape For Our Thanksgiving!

Stampin’ Up! Thankful Tablescape For Our Thanksgiving!

Hey there! Just a quick post today! We are celebrating the day with family. I used the Stampin' Up! Thankful Tablescape Kit to make these for our table today:

Stampin_up_thankful_tablescape_1

I re-purposed some of the designer paper pieces in the kit to cut more leaves with my  Autumn Accents Bigz Die, and added some 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon around the belly-band.

I added a little bit of interest by sponging the leaves with Early Espresso ink.

I am assembling a bunch of these for our Thanksgiving Table so all of the adults and some of the kids have one. It does triple-duty as a napin/silverware holder, a place marker, and a "thankful for" list!

I used the Chalk Marker to write my SIL Debbie's name on the "blackboard".

Even though Thanksgiving will be over later today, you can still order the Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit until the end of the Holiday Catalog on January 2nd.
I'm going to order some extra so I can make more as our family grows in the coming year.

Supply List:

Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit #133463 $19.95

Thankful wood stamp #133313 $7.95

Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit & Thankful wood stamp Bundle #133341 $23.95

1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon #132140 $7.95

Autumn Accents Bigz Die #127812 $21.95
