Sea Street Nugget Box Tutuorial

Posted on August 21, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s project is one that my Team made recently during our monthly meeting – I call it a nugget box and it is made with our NEW Hamburger Die that you can find in the 2014 Annual Catalog on page 233.

This die is a lot of fun and you can make such quick and easy treats with it for all kinds of occasions. And it’s a die – so need I say more? I love dies. It’s one of the things that brought me to Stampin’ Up! in the first place. Yes, I’m a Big Shot addict! LOL.

It’s been a bit since I’ve posted a video and I’ve been wanting to share this with you for a while so….

Pop ‘n Cuts Easter Treat

Posted on April 2, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

I love to use the Card Base Pop ‘n Cuts Die to create all kinds of projects. So when I was playing with the Eggstra Spectacular stamp set the other day working on my Mini File Folder Gum Holder (click HERE to see more about that project) I couldn’t resist pulling it out to play with – and voila!

The holder holds a square of Ghirardelli chocolate. (I found these special ones for Easter at my local Ingles that are just too cute with the little images on them.)

Don’t you just love the soft colors from the Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper? Mmm… subtles, I love the soft spring color pallet, it’s my personal happy place and after this winter I think we’re all looking forward to spring!

I’ve used my Blender Pen and Smoky Slate Classic Stampin’ Pad to color the little lamb along with an assortment of Stampin’ Write Markers for the basket of eggs. And the Island Indigo Chevron Ribbon belly band just slides off and allows you to open your treat –

Color Me Christmas Envelope Treat Pouch Video Tutorial

Posted on December 9, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

Today I wanted to share a new video tutorial with you of something I made to tuck into my holiday packages I was mailing. It’s just a little something, so that when they got their package they had something they could open right away. I have a very impatient bunch – LOL. So to hold my little treat I came up with this Envelope Treat Pouch.

I used the deer image from the Color Me Christmas stamp set that you can find in the Holiday Catalog on page 32 – It is a great set for coloring. And of course you have a lot of different choices as to how you color, but for this project I chose to use my Blender Pen and Classic Ink Pads.

I really love the way this Envelope Treat Pouch turned out and it holds a good size treat. So I tucked some Russell Stover Chocolates in mine.

Even better yet, since you get 4 per 12” x 12” piece of Designer Series Paper you can make a lot to share with your loved ones.

Remembering Your Birthday Video Tutorial

Posted on November 21, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

When I first saw the Eastern Elegance Designer Series Paper I fell in love with the colors and patterns. My eye has always drawn to the gray tones – I guess it’s a result of the 70’s when everything was brown – grays just feel clean and fresh to me. And since I haven’t had a chance to play with it much yet I wanted to use it for this card – a pocket File Folder Card.

So what do you think? I really like the way this card turned out and I love the way the second sentiment pops out from under the tab – kind of a hidden surprise.

New Gift Bow Die Video

Posted on November 14, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

I love to pamper my down line and since we have our meeting tonight, I wanted to make something special for those who are celebrating their anniversary as part of my team. So I made these quick little bags using the Gift Bow Die that hold a little surprise for them.

These little goodies were created using our 2013-2015 In Colors and were easy to make since I used our little Tag a Bag Gift Bags to start. I then added my bow that I created with my Gift Bow Bigz L Die (from the Holiday Catalog page 37), and finally finished them off with a tag that I made using our Chalk Talk stamp set and coordinating Framelits. Cute right?

I have made this Getting Started with the Gift Bow Die Video Tutorial to show you how to make both the basic bow that I used for this project along with the double bow too.

Did you know that our Gift Bow Die (129977) is part of this week’s Weekly Deals? You can now get it for a fantastic price for a limited time – So why not get yours today?

Here is a picture of all my little bags ready for my Team to choose from.
