I’m going to keep today’s post short and sweet since it is rather late and hubby will be home soon and for some reason expects dinner. Go figure – LOL! (I got side tracked sorting and mailing swaps. I’ll look forward to sharing them with you soon.)
Today’s card is one that I shared at my Sneak Peek event – I just love this suite of products! It makes such great cards for guys since it contains rich earthy colors.
Quick and simple – the circles add a pop of color and mimic the shape of the globe I thought. Why not leave me a comment and let me know what you think?
A New Catalog is a lot of fun – and of course when it’s Sale-a-bration, it’s even more fun! So to start the New Year off with a bang I held my NEW Catalog Sneak Peek Event on the 3rd of January – two days before the catalog launched! That meant that everyone who attended was able to play with some of the new products and see them before it went live! Whoo hoo! A great way to start off the New Year, right?
In today’s post I’m going to share with you some photos of the event. This first one is a picture of the classroom set up – to show you a bit of what greeted everyone who attended.
And this second one shows you what was at everyone’s spot.
Everyone who attended received a couple of special treats from me – and in today’s Video Tutorial I’ll show you how the little chocolate holder was made.
I call these Love Blossom Domed Treat Box – I’m so original, not with names – but well I called them this because they’re domed or treasure box shaped!
I used our new 6×6 paper stack, Love Blossoms since they were the perfect size! I didn’t even have to cut the paper!
Want to see a quick video tutorial on how to make them? Well, here you go. (Sorry about the froggy voice, I’m fighting winter allergies and just couldn’t wait any longer to share this with you.)
Domed Treat Box Video Tutorial:
A great project, huh? And it holds quite a bit so you can put almost any item you’d like inside. Of course, I wanted to pamper my guests with some Valentine chocolate, (before Larry found it!) so this was perfect.
And of course, our Honeycomb Happiness (Sale-a-bration 1412788/141291) is an item that you can earn FREE during Sale-a-bration. I love the images and thought the sentiment was perfect for this project!
I’ve given you a complete supply list for this project below. And I don’t know about you, but I find the Envelope Punch Board a fantastic addition to my stamping supplies and have been finding all kinds of things besides envelopes to make with it! If you haven’t already seen my Getting Started with the Envelope Punch Board Tutorial – why not check it out now?
NEW WEEKLY DEALS START TODAY!
Here are some projects made with the Envelope Paper – it’s not just for lining or creating envelopes as you can see.
And it is on sale during Sale-a-bration!!! Whoo! hoo! Now not only can you join Paper Pumpkin, but you can earn a FREE Sale-a-bration item when you do.

What do I like about Paper Pumpkin?
Well first, it’s fun to see this bright red box in the mail – a little surprise each month.
The box always contains a great exclusive Stamp Set and at least one Ink spot too, so it’s a great way to build a collection. Your first kit even contains a clear block!
And of course, you don’t have to cut or prepare this project! It’s all done for you. And lots of left over goodies to use afterwards.
If you love the kit, you can order refills when they become available too! Along with that, you’ll also have access to past Paper Pumpkin kits too!
Best yet, a quick video is provided each month to show you how to put it together if you don’t want to read and follow the photos instructions that are included!
Want to get the January kit and not miss out on all the fun? You’ll want to purchase and create your account by the end of the day Sunday, January 10th. You can place your order with me or in my Online Store.
Got questions? Give me a call 706 754-7124 or drop me an email at [email protected] and I’ll be happy to help you with them.
Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a card I created with the NEW Sale-a-bration set, The Sky’s the Limit!

You know how it goes I had planned on starting my Christmas baking yesterday, however the weather didn’t consult me. We had a bad rain storm blow through mid morning that took out our power for a couple of hours and then problems with the internet. So I didn’t get to post yesterday.
But your in luck today things are humming along just fine – so I thought I’d share the card I had planned on showing you yesterday along with some additional one too.
I created this card using the Dove of Peace (139800) single stamp. I loved the design immediately when I saw it and knew it would look lovely teamed up with our Night of Navy and done in our Gold Embossing Powder.
Great minds think alike, right? This next card was one I stamped at a recent team Shoebox Swap – My friend Teresa used some of the same supplies, but I think this card has a totally different feel to it. Isn’t that a wonderful part of stamping – the way things can be changed up so easily simply with the choices we make?

The Online Extravaganza is filled with great deals and here is a wonderful little treat that you can whip up for the holidays using several of the items on the list!
Can you tell the beard was created with our Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper (135315)? I wish my camera would pick up just how beautiful this paper is. I love this paper which shimmers and shines with the light and it’s on the Weekly Deals this week! So what could be better?
I chose the ribbon since it coordinated with the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper I thought. It’s our Gold & White 3/8″ Glitter Ribbon (139614) from the Holiday Catalog and while I used the White I think the bow would be great in gold too since it would highlight the belt buckle.
Want to see another Fry Box projects I’ve made? Great for those 4 legged family members you need a holiday treat for.
You can check out my quick video tutorial showing you how I made the back with our Designer Series Paper.
Stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing another little treat item with you.
I love to give Blessing Mix to friends and family for Thanksgiving. It’s a great little snack and I love this poem I found years ago when I first started stamping that I always attach to the treat.
I created a Mini Berry Basket to hold this year’s Blessing Mix and if you’d like to learn how I made it you can CLICK HERE to see my Mini Berry Basket Video Tutorial.
Great news the 1/8″ Circle Punch (134365) and the Berry Basket Die (137366) is part of our Online Extravaganza that is starting today – So you can save too!!! As always I’ve posted a complete supply list below for your convenience.
Want the poem? Here you go!
Blessing Mix
The Bugles are a symbol of the Cornucopia, a horn of plenty.
The Pretzels represent arms folded in Thanks & Prayer.
The Candy Corn reminds us that during the first winter,
Food was so scarce that settlers survived on just a few kernels of corn per day.
The Fruit is a reminder that Thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest.
The Peanuts represent seeds, the potential of the bounteous
harvest of the next season if they are planted & well tended
