Fun Bee My Valentine Candy Bar Slider Tutorial

Posted on by

I’ve got another fun tutorial for you today using the Bee Mine Suite Collection (162560). This time it is a treat, containing something sweet! I’ve got my Team Winter Retreat this weekend and wanted to make something special to put on their tables today for those spending the weekend. So here is what I came up with.

I cased this layout from the Mini Catalog – I love how the samples can inspire us, don’t you? I simply changed it up slightly to suit my needs and voila! A fun little candy bar slider. When I found this candy bar at my local Aldi during the holidays I knew it would be perfect as a little treat using the Bee My Valentine Bundle (162554) so in the cart it went.

And of course I wanted to have a little signature panel for the back of the slider so a little message could be written too. Fun!

Gifts like this is one of the reason I started stamping. I love to make fun items to gift to family and friends and this makes it easy to do and cost effective too! Something that was helpful when my children were young and I need to make a class set.

Want to see how I made this Candy Bar Slider? I’ve got a video tutorial for you today along with the PDF which will have a complete supply list, YouTube Link so you can print it off and go back to it easily, along with step by step instructions too.

Another fun Bee Mine Card Tutorial

Posted on by

Yesterday I shared a card that we made during an OnStage@Home event. So today I thought I’d share the other card we made with a quick little water color technique.

This card uses the fun Bee My Valentine Bundle (162554) with the coordinating punch.

I loved punches when I first started to stamp they always made me feel successful since I didn’t have to stamp the entire card without any mistakes. How about you? Do you love them too? While I eventually build my collection to include dies and the machine I still love the ease and portability of a punch!

Here is a quick video for you showing how we made this card and of course a PDF too.

Meandering Meadow Desk Calendar

Posted on by

Do you like to have a calendar on hand, or like to create little decor items? If so this fun little Acrylic Desk Calendar might be just want you’d like. I created this little decor item for my Team Shoe Box Swap last month and it got buried under some other projects so I didn’t get to share it with you earlier. But good news, here it is today.

I just fell in love with the Meandering Meadow Designer Series Paper that is part of our Online Exclusive selection as it is filled with wonderful landscapes and rich color. This paper was painted by one of our Stampin’ Up! Artisans on small canvases and then made in to designer series paper. So you’ll have wonderful little work of arts when you get this paper!

I found the Acrylic frame at my local dollar store and so couldn’t wait to create with it. Want to see how I made it, so you can make one too?

Bee My Valentine Skinny Milk Box

Posted on by

Today’s I’m going to share a fun treat item that I made for my team OnStage@Home event using the Bee Mine Suite Collection (162560) from our January Mini Catalog that is going LIVE on January 4th. This Suite is filled with fun items for creating Valentine treats and more!

Since it’s winter it’s always dry here in North Georgia so I thought some lip balm would be a great little treat to place inside. Dry skin is a constant issue during the winter. I was lucky to find a fun advent calendar of them at Sam’s Club so everyone got a fun “flavor” to choose from. Here are some photos from that event. First here is a shot of our table ready to create the projects they shared with us for Make n Takes. I’ll share projects those with you soon.

And here is our group that was able to join me for the streaming event – even the youngest crafted with us. So adorable!

Want to see how I made this Skinny Milk Box so you can make them too? Here is a quick tutorial for you along with the PDF which has a complete supply list and measurements for you so you can plan for your treats and order the supplies when the catalog goes LIVE.
