Sometimes a small gift can be made really outstanding when you make the wrapping yourself. Today I have created a really sturdy 6 3/4 x 5 gift box ~ change out the colors and decoration and it would be a great box for a gift to celebrate any occasion!
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. 🙂
Continue readingThis is a fun little project, perfect for a table gift or a little ‘something’ for co-workers. It will hold either a Ferrero Rocher or Lindt Lindor chocolate, and very economic to make as you can get about 6 from one sheet of 11 x 8 1/2 card. Remember to change out your color scheme for Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas or even Red, White and Blue for July 4th!
Continue readingEvery year I like to do craft fairs making items that are just perfect for stocking stuffers, appreciation gifts for hostess’s, coworkers, teachers or small table gifts. Everyone love to receive a ‘little something’ and I just love to give a ‘little something’ !
In today’s video tutorial I share how to make a pretty little bag to fit a 30g tube of hand cream as well as a technique for creating the topper with the Elegant Tag Punch.

Today’s project is inspired by a blog hop I recently took part in, this is the reason I love blog hops, you can get such inspiration. I have put a link to my inspiration a little further down so you can check it out for yourself.
Continue readingI love little gifts, both giving and receiving them is a thrill! – just a little something wrapped up prettily, given unexpectedly or placed on a holiday or celebration table – just lovely.
When Stampin’ UP! 2020 Aug/December Mini Catalog came out earlier this year it had the Little Treat Dies, perfect for creating and wrapping a little gift. I experimented and found I could get a mini hand sanitizer in one or a couple of those famous chocolate squares! I am sure there are lots of other goodies out there that would fit in as well.
Continue readingToday I have a cute decorated chocolate bar wallet, featuring some of the autumn/fall and Thanksgiving themed goodies from the August – December 2020 mini catalog.
I am a big fan of autumn themed colors and ‘things’, pumpkins, leaves, rusty golds and coppers, so I kinda went a bit crazy with this gift~packaged bar of chocolate. Come back tomorrow to see another autumn themed project I designed for a blog hop.
Continue readingI am always looking for inspiration and sometimes that comes from fellow demonstrators! Due to one thing and another I was not able to send my usual ‘Thank You’ to my March customers who shopped for their Stampin’ UP! goodies with me. So when it came to April I knew I needed to do a something special for them and my April customers. I found this really great ‘twisted’ packet from Sam Donald so made a bunch of them from several of the soon to be retiring designer series papers.
I make and share lot of cards on my blog, I was working on some designs one evening and looking for a change and some inspiration and there was some off-cuts of Designer Series Paper on my work bench. I decided a box would make a nice change ~ so I started with the largest piece of DSP to make the lid then worked backwards to make the base of the box, choosing one of the colors from the paper.
I share the ones I made below but set myself a challenge with the video to create a box for a Bath Bomb from scratch (keeping my fingers crossed all the time that it would work out)
