Happy Valentine’s Day! A Sweet Treat Pouch; easy gift!


Here's a super neat way to give a treat to a friend.  My friend Marilyn made these for her club gals this month. Many of my gals like to make something special for their fellow club members when they are hostess. I love seeing their creativity!

Isn't it cute?  It's made from our clear envelopes!  I think it's super clever.  She found the idea online and changed it up so it opens at the bottom; no need to destroy the pretty topper to get to your treat! 

The card stock and From My Heart designer paper are 'inside' the envelope.  You can adhere your candies with mini glue dots to stay in place.  

Watch the Facebook Live video replay below.  I made one adding a nice big cookie.  I placed the cookie in another clear envelope and inserted it into the outer one.  I just checked it and it's still soft a few weeks later! 

Details:

  • Clear envelopes – get 50 in a package for $6.  See them here
  • Card stock topper is 3 1/2" X 5" scored at 2 1/2". Rounded with the Detailed Trio punch
  • From My Heart DSP topper is 1 1/2" X 4 3/4", bottom two corners are rounded
  • Card stock inside the envelope is 4 1/4" square
  • Designer Series Paper inside the envelope is 4" square
  • Be sure to have the opening at the bottom for easy access to your treat! 
  • Stamps are from Little Ladybug, Heartfelt, Butterfly Gala, Stitched So Sweetly
  • I stamped directly on the punched heart above; it's punched from the From My Heart Specialty Designer paper!
  • Heart Punch Pack 

Here's the video for this pouch and two adorable Little Ladybug cards.

  • Fancy Fold Accordion Heart Doilies!


    I dreamed of doing this fun accordion fold with the Heart Doilies in my sleep.  I rarely do that!  Do you?  


    I shared how in this week's Facebook Live yesterday.  My FB Live's are usually on Tuesdays at 11 am but I was out of town so switched to Wednesday this week.  It's so simple!  And you could do this with many of our dies too!  Click below to see it.

    I also traced the flap of my envelope onto the From My Heart specialty designer paper to make this card extra, extra special!  

    Details:

    • The pretty soft scallops on the edge of the DSP are from the new Braided Border punch.  I did one length of it and cut it in half for both cards. 
    • The greeting is stamped on a Timeless Label punch and added to another Heart Doily.  The stamps are from the Heart to Heart stamp set seen here. 
    • I used the new sparkly Faceted Gems from the From My Heart Suite.  See them here
    • You get 40 Heart doilies in one package for $5.50; a great deal at .14 cents each.

    Cutting:

    • I cut a strip of the From My Heart designer paper at 3" X 12" and cut that into two pieces 3" X 5 1/2" long.  The hearts are the reverse side of the pretty foil double sided designer paper on the envelope.  When you use these measurements you can get 8 cards from one sheet!  It's a great way to use up the designer paper you may be 'hoarding'. 
    • The white layer inside is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"; my favorite size for inside cards as you can get 5 from one sheet of 8 1/2" X 11".  

    I folded each doily in half and glued each one to the next just on the outer curve.   I adhered the folded doilies to the card with either Tombo liquid adhesive or Tear & Tape; it's super strong!

  • The Gang’s All Meer cute window card


    This stamp set was one of the top free choices at my New Catalog Launch party earlier this month.  People are loving it!

    I chose to create a window card to highlight these cute critters.  We stamped them in Early Espresso and colored in with Crumb Cake blends markers. 

    **Did you know that when stamping an image you plan to color with our Blends markers you can use any color of our Classic ink pads?  They are water based and the markers are alcohol based.  

    See the stamp set here.  It's a free choice you receive for any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. This lasts through March. 

     

    Details:

    • Coastal Cabana frame is 4" X 3 1/2" and I used a 2 5/8" square die to cut the window.
    • The main card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" thick White card stock
    • 1 3/8" scalloped circle for the greeting and 1 1/2" circle in Daffodil Delight
    • two 1/2" X 4" strips of Birthday Bonanza designer series paper
    • The twine bow is from the Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack; another FREE Sale-a-Bration choice!

  • Honey Bee & Little Ladybug; choice!


    I received this gorgeous swap card from my friend Diana Gibbs. I just love it!  

    Sweet and simple; but a big wow in my opinion.  The bees are colored with Blends markers in Seaside Spray and Mango Melody plus a little Wink of Stella on the wings.

    That pretty Golden Honey Specialty designer paper is one of the FREE choices in our Sale-a-Bration catalog right now.

    Get it free with any $50 order through March. But beware that some items do not last through the promotion; they've been known to run out of some items before the promotion ends. 

    The circles are 1 3/4" and the bees are die-cut using the Detailed Bee Dies.  These come in a bundle with the stamp set at 10% off.  See them here.   It pairs beautifully with the Golden Honey designer paper above.

    My friend Judith had a workshop this weekend and she loves the Little Ladybug stamp set so I gave them a choice of two cards.  She was so excited to earn this stamp set FREE with her workshop order. 

    Remember that I'm giving away one set in January!  Everyone who places an online order from me will be entered in the drawing. 

    I used a Light Flirty Flamingo Blends marker and the Wink of Stella and So Saffron ink for the belly. A bit of Petal Pink for the faces and sponging on the circles as well.  We added Gold pearls for an accent which pairs nicely with the Golden Honey specialty DSP. 

    The card stock measures 4" X 5 1/4" white, DSP is 1 7/8" X 5" and the Black is 2" X 5".  The circles here are 3/4", 1 1/2" and 1 3/4" in size. 

    Below you can see how we stamped the inside of the card.  

    Which one would you choose to make? 

    Besides Sale-a-Bration there are three more January Specials just for you!
