Petal Palette Merci Chocolate Box

Posted on March 15, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

Recently I pampered my team with our Peak Princess event. I hold these events twice a year for those on my team who qualify by reaching certain goals. It’s a lot of fun and we always make special projects together.

Today’s project was a little gift that I gave everyone that coordinated with our projects that we made using the Petal Palette Bundle.

It was such a hit that I thought I’d share how to make them with you.

March Thank You Cards – All Things Thanks Tutorial

Posted on March 14, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

I love to send out thank you cards each month to my stamping friends – It not only allows me to share, but say thank you to them for choosing me as their demonstrator. This month’s card is a monochromatic card made with the All Things Thanks stamp set, which is one of my favorites since it has a variety of fonts and sizes. It makes it a perfect set for all kinds of projects!

And the fact it is monochromatic makes it perfect for new stampers since it uses a limited amount of supplies!

Check out my tutorial so you can make some too-

Team fun

Posted on March 13, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

Last week my team and I gathered for our monthly team meeting. I really enjoy this time sharing and stamping together, so today I thought I’d share some of the team swaps with you. I also love seeing the projects that everyone chooses to make for their swaps – it’s always fun to see what they create and share!

This first item is a beautiful box made with the Cake Soiree Suite of products – and since the Sweet Soiree Designer Series Specialty Paper (145564) is a bit heavier, it’s perfect for this kind of thing.

Beautiful, right? Deborah used the Cake Soiree Bundle (145816/147627) to create the tag. And color coordination was made easy since the suite includes a coordinating Card stock Pack (145565) that contains 3 colors from the Designer Series Paper.

Love the ribbon? Berry Burst (145489) is one of my favorite In Colors and this ribbon with it’s silver edge is perfect for this bundle!

What’s it filled with? I’m sure some treats, Deborah is the best at finding unique treat items for us. (I haven’t cracked it open yet since my husband is home. LOL!)

And here is another treat item that Sue made using the Perennial Birthday stamp set (145757/145760).

It has two pockets that she has tucked a Dark Chocolate Blueberry Ghiradelli square into – can’t wait to try them!

And how about this cute little note card?

St. Patty’s Day Ferrero Roche Gift Box Video Tutorial

Posted on March 12, 2018 by Stamp with Jini

I recently attending a DIY Retreat and received these yummy little Ferrero Roche Chocolates at dinner. Of course everyone at the table was on a diet right now, so I ended up with a little pile of them. LOL! As I lined them up on my table they made me think of little pots of gold – so I couldn’t resist making a little box for them for St. Patrick’s Day!

Of course I couldn’t resist adding a little shine to this project, so I pulled out the fabulous Myths & Magic Glimmer Paper. The light green was perfect for this project!

These boxes are quick and easy to make so I whipped up a video tutorial for you in case you wanted to make some too!

So what do you think? Do you want to spread a little luck of the Irish and a little chocolate of course?!

If so I’ve also made a printable PDF tutorial with the supply list and measurements for you to go along with the video.
