Sharon brought these amazing hand made baskets to our last Flowerbug's gathering.

Aren't they fabulous?  It was sweet & generous of her!  

For the fresh flowers basket she used the Fine Art Gallery designer paper in the Jan-June catalog.

She cut down a small milk carton to insert inside the paper basket so we could add water.  She added a metal frog to the inside of it to add the flowers securely.  The fresh flowers lasted over a week!  

Would you like to know how she made the basket?  Well she made a template to share with you all as well!  Download Sharon's Basket here

For the candy basket she used a brand new Pansy Petals designer paper in the new 2021 Annual Catalog.

  On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

  These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

  Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!

  Here's the template for the explosion card.

  Here's a masculine birthday made with the Plaid Tidings designer paper and Many Mates stamp set.

  These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy!

• Mini Coffee Carriers; a special gift with treats & glue stands!

  November 20, 2020

  ---

  Have you noticed the mini coffee carriers on page 9 of the Holiday catalog? They're actually quite large and should not be called mini!  You can see the entire suite here. 

  My friend Marilyn made this one for me; casing the catalog project on page 10.  It's so cool! 

  Save

  She used the Heartwarming Hugs and Wrapped in Christmas stamp set.  She wrapped her coffee cups with Real Red CS. Tip; use strong adhesive like Tear & Tape for this. 

  Save

  Here's another version. I made these for my Flowerbug's Team that attended OnStage@Home a few weeks ago.  It was filled with treats, apple cider packet and a liquid glue stand that we make *see photo below

  Save

  I actually sprayed my coffee cups with a mixture of rubbing alcohol and Real Red ink refill.  

  Here are the Multipurpose Glue stands included in the gift above. We have them available in my Shop here.  They are $6 each.
