Spooky Halloween Treat Tent Tutorials

Wow, where has the week gone? It’s just flown by and I haven’t been able to share with you as I had planned. So today I’m going to share another of my Halloween goodies with you, this time a treat tent filled with M&Ms. After all everyone needs a little something, something right? And who doesn’t like chocolate? Got to tell you it was tough keeping the M&Ms away from my husband so I could add them to the treat bag, lol! I’m thinking this might just be his little treat.

Today’s treat uses the Spooky Sweet Suite (Online Exclusive 166205) of products and it’s filled with all kinds of fun things.

I’ve enjoyed creating a bunch of little treats that my family and friends will enjoy later this month and think you’ll enjoy the Suite too. The Spooky Sweet Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 166191) even has some fun die cut pieces you can use if you want a really quick no stamp project or simply coordinating images. Who doesn’t love that?

Check out my tutorial that I’ve created for you along with my PDF with complete supply list, measurements and more!

Beautiful Butterflies & More

If you haven’t seen this Bundle in the Mini Catalog, the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle (164615) is one that you’ll want to check out since it contains a fun movement shaped option along with a fun hybrid embossing folder with dies. It’s all part of the Beautiful Bokeh Suite (164619).

Today’s swaps all use this fun bundle but all have different takes making them a lot of fun. check out this first card using classic black and yellow.

It was created using the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper (164700) and Floral & Gingham Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper (164713).

And this next one uses the Smoky Slate, Daffodil Delight and Petal Pink color combination for a softer look.

Open the butterfly and you’ve got a fun fold that is sure to impress.

This next card teams up the small butterflies from the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder & Dies (164614) with the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper (161467).

That fun little window was created with the All Around it Dies (Online Exclusive 164725). And speaking of Online Exclusive products these next two cards use the beautiful black & white patterns from the Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 165545).

Last but not least today I’ve got a couple of 3d swaps for you. First is a fun little ruler holder

using the lovely Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper (164607) and Brass Butterflies (158136). And this last little 3d is a treat that holds a mini Ghirardelli square.

The little wrap works like a book and the card stock measures 3 1/8″ x 2″ it has been scored at 1 3/4″ and 2″. A piece of Baker’s Twine creates the closure and is simply tacked to the back cover with some adhesive and then the chocolate adhere on top. The Die cut pieces using the Storybook Moments Suite (164681) decorate the cover. Cute, right?

#OnStage Wrap up –

I can’t tell you how much fun I have had over the last 16 years attending Stampin’ Up! events like this. While the format may have changed the experience hasn’t. Creativity, NEW products, sneak peeks,

and best of all gathering with Demonstrators from all over the world who love to paper craft like I do.

Card Sketches Crate Tutorial

I’ve been sharing my card sketches with you over the past months and today I’m going to share one of the ways I store them on my desk with this cute little crate I decorated.

I’ve used a inexpensive wooden crate that I found at my local dollar store to decorate and have given you a PDF that even has the labels that you can die cut in both black and Blackberry Bliss so you can choose how you decorate your little crate. Simply print the PDF you want on Basic White Card stock and go!

These card sketches are great for inspiration and having them handy on my desk makes it easy to get started!

I’ve punched a hole on them and put them on a ring to keep them together so they sit up nicely in my wooden crate.

Want to see how I decorated this crate? I’ve got a PDF and video tutorial for you so you can make them too!
