Last year I shared a video on how to use the Cracker and Treat Box Die, and created one for different holidays. It was such a lot of fun that I decided to make a Valentine version featuring the Country Bouquet Stamp Set and coordinating Country Bouquet Punch to show that a cracker is not just for Christmas!
Continue readingOnce again I enjoyed designing and making my flip over calendar for 2023, with the help of my friend, Elly – while she was visiting from the UK in October. . As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. This was designed for a stamp camp in early December 2022, we had such fun making them and my ladies have made me promise to do another for 2024
I am changing things a little for this year, I recognise not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month. .
So today I share, Valentine Hearts
Continue readingI am a bit of an organizing fanatic – (although if you looked at my desk right now you would probably think HUH!?!) I am always looking for a bit of paper to write a note on or double checking the date. So today’s 3D project covers both of those needs.
These are very easy to make and would make a super little gift for a co-worker, it holds about 200 pieces of 4 1/4 x 2 3/4 copy paper!
Continue readingToday I have a cute desk top calendar to share – and it will fit in a regular envelope for posting!!! I have used a mixture of products from the new 2023 Jan – April Mini Catalog and the Annual Catalog. I think sometimes I get so caught up in the new goodies that I can overlook the ones already in my stash. So Tea Boutique decorative paper and Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set are from the Annual Catalog and the Petal Park Bundle is from the new mini!

Last year I had such fun sharing my flip over calendar at the start of each month that I have decided to do the same for my 2022 calendar. This was designed for a stamp camp in November 2021, we had such fun making them and my ladies have made me promise to do another for 2022.
I have spent the last few weeks designing the calendar for 2023 – I will continue to share them each month starting in January and I will share a card using the same elements to show that the designs can be used more than once!
So today I share Christmas Poinsettias and Pine Cones
Continue readingThis makes such a pretty gift to put a few goodies in as a gift for friends and family. As you can see from my photo I had some fun making several of these – choosing my card color from the colors in the decorative paper. Oh…. and the punch I could not remember in the video is called Lovely Labels Pick a Punch!
Continue readingI love to have treats to give if we have guests or even if we have been invited to dinner, taking a little treat for each person makes my heart happy. The Cracker and Treat Box Dies are just perfect for whipping up a whole bunch of them, just choose the colors to meet your occasion. As for filling them…………. I give lots of ideas in the video. 🙂
