Sweet & Simple Treat pouch with free project sheet & video

February 16, 2026

I shared this neat treat pouch on last week’s Live video. It’s super simple and requires a 6″ X 12″ sheet of designer paper.

I made one before and one during the video. The left pouch above features the Made with Love designer paper. The right one uses the Lovely & Beautiful specialty designer series paper.

What I like about this is there’s no special measuring; just score on the lines on the template in the project sheet seen below. The belly band makes closure easy and you can decorate the front in any way you’d like. It’s 1 1/4″ X 10 1/2″. Watch the video to see how I form it around the pouch. There’s no need to score it; just bend at the folds leaving a bit of room for sliding it off.

I used the 1 3/4″ circle punch and the To the Point punch. The greetings are from the Words of Beauty bundle seen here. The little heart punch is retired.

I created a free project sheet with template for you. Click here to download it or print it.

Black & White with a POP of color & ALL fun folds for my 2nd July card kit to go; or choose the tutorial only option

July 8, 2022
I'm always drawn to Black & White patterned paper because it's such a fun start to creating. Black & White with a 'pop' of color are usually quite striking, eye-catching cards and these are no exception!

Each one is a unique fun fold design with great pops of color too.

I chose to use the Biggest Wish stamp set for my greetings but you can substitute any set you own. Or add it on to the kit at an extra 10% off.

Here's how it works:

The pre-cut card kit includes $20 in product and you receive the PDF tutorial free. It's the best deal.

You'll receive 1/2 pkg of the Perfectly Penciled DSP (6" X 12"), a share of the Iridescent Pearls and 1/8" Tahitian Tide ribbon. You'll have plenty of supplies left to make even more cards! The kit includes all pre-cut pieces including die-cuts or punched pieces. It does not include textured embossing.

The kit and tutorial include 2 each of 5 card designs. The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies and step & step directions. I have just a few of these left. See all of my kits here

What you need to complete these cards:

Get a 2 toned leaf with Watercolor Pencils with the Soft Seedlings stamp set

July 7, 2022
Here's another card I shared on this week's FB Live video. I continued with the same color scheme of Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam. Who knew these colors would be so pretty together!?

Save

I used the Soft Seedlings stamp set (seen here) from the new Holiday catalog along with the FREE cards & envelopes from our newest Sale-a-Bration line.

I inked and stamped the main leaf image in Soft Sea Foam directly onto the Soft Sea Foam card stock. Then I used a watercolor pencil from the Assortment 2 package to highlight the leaf with the blue/green hue. Afterwards I blended it with my Wink of Stella pen.

Soft Seedlings with the new Sale-a-Bration cards & envelopes

On yesterday's FB Live I shared 3 cards featuring the new Soft Seedlings stamp set. The first two featured the new FREE Sale-a-Bration cards & envelopes too.

You might wonder how I achieved the two-toned look of the leaf. I stamped it first in Soft Sea Foam and removed a bit of the ink on the edges with a sponge dauber. Then I added Pool Party ink to those same areas. Huff and stamp!   Watch the video here to see how it's done.

There is a vellum leaf on the stamped leaf for both texture and shimmer. I sponged the punched leaf (Bough punch), sponged a bit of color and curled the leaves. Lastly I added Wink of Stella to both leaves for a pretty shimmer effect.

Save

I trimmed off 1" along the bottom edge of the card base and adhered it to the inside.

Then I cut a white scalloped edge using the Contour Scalloped dies. I textured the 1 1/4" Pool Party card stock strip with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder seen here. I LOVE this folder!  I attached the embossed layer to the scalloped White trim and then adhered to the card front.

Save

The 'hello' is stamped on a die-cut from the Tea Cup dies and added over two bows; one with Crinkled Seam Binding ribbon and another with White twine.
