Valentine's Treats

I made a lot of Valentine's Treats for my 2nd grader and kindergartener's classes. I found this cute idea from Laura on scs. I started with a 3x3 card and used the love wheel and the sentiment from Holiday Wishes. I stuck a heart shaped lollipop that I found inside and tied some red grosgrain ribbon to finish it off. Super quick and super cute!



I put them all in a nice basket for my son to carry to school. Happy Valentine's Day!

Nursery Necessities Card



I got the layout idea for this Nursery Necessities card from Jane (Whoopsie Daisy on scs) here. I changed the colors to blue bayou and river rock and added the double-stitched river rock ribbon lengthwise. I used the Nursey Letters jumbo wheel on the river rock squares. I loved using the star punch to punch out the cute stars. I used dimensionals on the stars and boat to add some dimension.

Sale-A-Bration!

It's sale-a-bration time! For every $50 you purchase, you receive a free sale-a-bration stamp set! Hostesses can receive free stamp sets as well! And the starter kit is 20% off at only $159! See all the details here.


For this 3x3 card I used the So Many Scallops sale-a-bration set. I started by punching the scallop punch in the middle of some bashful blue textured paper (love the textured paper!) and then using the corner rounder to scallop the bottom edge. Then I embossed the Happy Birthday stamp on some certainly celery dsp and rose red dsp and punched out the middle of the rose red and added it to the middle of the certainly celery with a dimensional.


Then I placed dimensionals in the four corners of the certainly celery dsp and aligned it with my punched out scallop to create the dimension on the card.

Heart Tote


We made this adorable Heart Tote at our last meeting. Jen found a Heart box at Target that we used as our template. We stamped Tres Chic on textured groovy guava cs. I added some wide grosgrain ribbon as a handle. Some chocolate and this tote is ready to give away!

Altered Altoid Tin


These altoid tins make great little gifts that you can put yummy treats in. I decorated this one with wild wasabi and purely pomegranate. I stamped the heart and swirl from Priceless. I covered the side with some wild wasabi double-stitched ribbon and put some yummy treats inside.
